Cynical and Sarcastical. Teacher and Grandma. Fiercely independent and a staunch egalitarian. I love literature, art, science, and all your fluffy aminals.

Every Fourth of July, I read Frederick Douglass's important speech from that day in 1852 and ask my friends to join me. This year it hits even harder. "Your shouts of liberty and equality, hollow mockery ... mere bombast, fraud, deception, impiety, and hypocrisy." www.blackpast.org/african-amer...
(1852) Frederick Douglass, "What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth Of July"
Explore the speech "What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth Of July" delivered by Frederick Douglass in 1852, including full text and historical context.

The president is hawking fragrances while the State of Florida is celebrating its first concentration camp by handing out swag.

I'm rooting for the asteroid now more than ever.

Good night 😴

War is when the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.

In honor of his 216 birthday, here is Edgar Allen Poe’s “Annabel Lee"

It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
