The best thing to happen to the Bond film franchise was the game Goldeneye for the Nintendo 64.

Which tells you everything you need to know about the quality of the movies.

I was on Naltrexone for about a year, and found it to be a very useful sobriety tool.

I don’t think OP is comparing them directly.

I think the point is that most school children learn about Helen Keller (and people like her), while Du Bois (and people like him) mostly show up in specialized college courses.

It’s meant to point out the disparity in who gets taught about and when.

To add to this (and maybe this is only me) but I don’t remember learning anything about the Reconstruction Era. This was the period directly after the end of slavery, and a period of massive social progress, largely killed and reversed by the advent of segregation.

A few I’d recommend:

‘Separate: The Story of Plessy V. Ferguson’ by Steve Luxenberg.

‘Robert E. Lee and Me’ by Ty Seidule

‘Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl’ by Harriet Jacobs

I’d also suggest the writings of W.E.B. Du Bois and Frederick Douglass

That sounds really nice. And everybody loves a good tulip!

What game are you playing?

I’m an advocate for research and character development prior to drafting, but this👆 is why I’ve never been able to get into hard outlines.

Outlines make me feel as though I’m eliminating those free-flow scenes and sections before they have a chance to exist!

It’s never something you have to do, if something you think you might regret.

I just finished “Between the World and Me” by Ta-Nehisi Coates. Very lyrical, thought provoking, and insightful. Would 100% recommend.

And am currently reading “Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents” by Isabel Wilkerson. I’m about 1/5 through but my minds already blown.
