Hope is never futile - it is one of the greatest forms of resistance we have.

Hope sits in the trenches, the last one standing, its teeth cracked, its knuckles bruised, its body broken;
but its eyes are still gleaming with the light of a million lamps.
Its heart is still beating because even here, even now,
it knows that a better world is worth fighting for.

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library
