I shared a video of a wonderful book, Shining Bright, Shining Black and this is the first comment. The video hasn’t even been up for 30 minutes. It’s the first day of Black History Month

I’m inviting you to no longer prioritize places that are actively engaging in behavior that works to oppress groups that have been marginalized. this is incredibly disappointing. We can spend our money in places that continue to uplift and support ALL people.

In a surprise to no one, libraries and time spent in libraries (with a certified librarian) prove beneficial to children!
Now if the rest of the nation would recognize the power of libraries, we’d be in a better place.

If you played an instrument back in high school and stopped: we are in a golden age of decent cheap instruments.
The guitars are better, the amps are better. The pedals are cheaper, the wind instruments are actually instruments and not just shaped like them, etc.
Jump back into it.
