  • ORA Book Club: On Tyranny
    Mar 18 2025

    It's time for our first book pick of 2025!

    Without a doubt, the second Trump presidency with its deliberate push of the unitary executive branch has created unprecedented changes and challenges to our way of life. Published in 2017, "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century" examines the growing authoritarianism in the United States and what we can learn from countries who have endured similar experiences.

    Regardless of your political leanings, knowledge is powerful, and history is a tool that can be used to build rather than tear down. "On Tyranny" is the blueprint to take action. In this day and time, complacency is something we simply cannot afford.

  • You and Me, Us Never Part
    Feb 21 2025

    Its our first ALR of the year and we're talking about love! Its finally February (did January feel extra long to you too?) and we're still trying to hold onto some semblance of normalcy over here. This week, we're asking what role friendship plays in a relationship. Can you hold on to your friends when you're in love? Should you vent to friends about your partner? Do all your hangouts have to be with couples when you're part of one? Should your partner be your bestie? How do your single besties feel when you leave single life behind? Join us for a light-hearted conversation about love and join the conversation in the comments of our socials.
