Reading #thenightingale by Kristin Hannah for local coffeehouse’s #bookclub & was struck by this quote:
“Asking yourself a question, that’s how resistance begins. And then ask that very question to someone else.” - Remco Campert

‘Sooth’ is an archaic word that means “truth” or “reality.”
It primarily lives on in the verb ‘soothe’ which originally meant "to show, assert, or confirm the truth of.”
‘forsooth’ = for truth (indeed)
‘soothsayer’ = truth sayer (someone who can predict the future)

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.
