For some reason, this is the most affecting part for me: “Later, my mom told me that the call from the police came in the middle of a folk group’s performance of a Christianized version of “If I Had a Million Dollars” by the Barenaked Ladies. She told me that the song, both the original and the Jesus version, was ruined for her now.”

I’m wondering, too: Does the PK Shame Spotlight Anthology exist yet? There are so many of us. Seems like it could be a useful book to hand to kids in the thick of it.
