An Invitation to Community and Models for Connection

After almost every presentation activist and writer Mia Birdsong gives to executives, think tanks, and policy makers, one of those leaders quietly confesses how much they long for the profound community she describes. They have family, friends, and colleagues, yet they still feel like they're standing alone. They're "winning" at the American Dream, but they're lonely, disconnected, and unsatisfied.

It seems counterintuitive that living the "good life"--the well-paying job, the nuclear family, the upward mobility--can make us feel isolated and unhappy. But in a divided America, where only a quarter of us know our neighbors and everyone is either a winner or a loser, we've forgotten the key element that helped us make progress in the first place: community. In this provocative, groundbreaking work, Mia Birdsong shows that what separates us isn't only the ever-present injustices built around race, class, gender, values, and beliefs, but also our denial of our interdependence and need for belonging. In response to the fear and discomfort we feel, we've built walls, and instead of leaning on each other, we find ourselves leaning on concrete.

Through research, interviews, and stories of lived experience, How We Show Up returns us to our inherent connectedness where we find strength, safety, and support in vulnerability and generosity, in asking for help, and in being accountable. Showing up--literally and figuratively--points us toward the promise of our collective vitality and leads us to the liberated well-being we all want.

Reliable and Versatile Adapter for My MacBook Air
I have a 13-inch MacBook Air, M4, 2025, and I use it for everything: work, watching videos and series, and occasionally gaming. I also regularly attend court hearings and professional meetings through Zoom, Google Meet, and similar platforms, so I cannot afford connection issues. This adapter, especially with its LAN port, has been very useful. It gives me more confidence when attending hearings online because I can rely on a stable wired connection. It also works well while connecting other devices, such as microphones or pen drives, which makes it very versatile. The finish and materials feel solid and high-quality. I used to have a white plastic adapter from another brand, but it ended up changing color with use. This one stays cleaner, looks more professional, and is easier to keep in good condition. It is easy to carry, practical, and very efficient.

Good quality product
Good value for the price I paid. I have all the slots in use and it works fine. It really helps increase the reading and network speeds, if (like in my case) I have to use both ethernet and/or wifi antenna for my company laptop. It is slim, sturdy, discreet and I like the main cable that connects to the PC is very flexible like a cord. Very happy with it. The only downside is that it gets very hot, I don't know why, but other than this, it really meets my expectations!

One cable does it all, rock solid Ethernet and great 4K output
This hub has simplified my desk setup considerably. I plug it into my MacBook and instantly have Ethernet, 4K HDMI, two USB-A ports, and 100W charging all from one connection. The Ethernet is Gigabit and the speeds are as fast as plugging directly into the router. The 4K HDMI output to my monitor is clean with no flickering. It runs slightly warm during extended use but nothing alarming. Build quality feels solid and UGREEN has been consistently reliable in my experience. Worth every penny if you need to expand a USB-C only laptop.
