Her book about the riots was so moving. Rest now dear mother.
As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Love me some Boston creme donuts from Dunkin. Today's donuts were filled by an overzealous donut filler and were an explosion of creamy goodness. Hope everyone's Friday is also filled with creamy goodness.

Just finished reading Brave New World by Aldous Huxley for the first time. I think I genuinely hated it. Parts of it seem to be a sexually-frustrated young man's daydream.

I've read books that make me wonder how life can go on without knowing what happens after the book ends. It's been awhile since that has happened and I'd like to find another one of those books. Any suggestions?
