"My name is Karin. I'm 24 years old, and I was diagnosed with autism at 3. My parents put me in dance to help with my communication. It turned into my career as a professional dancer/dance teacher. Because you have autism doesn't mean you should give up." autismmosaic.org/

Wow. The @sfchronicle is calling the race to recall Brock Turner sentencing Judge Aaron Persky. He is the first California judge to be recalled since 1932.
