Based on current population and migration trends, America’s 3 biggest metropolitan areas by 2100 will be DFW (No. 1), Houston (No. 2), and Austin (No. 3), replacing New York, LA, and Chicago as the country’s most populous metros, the report predicts. https://t.co/zdkw76MW1G

70+ years after the Civil War, the WPA Federal Writers' Project began interviewing elderly Americans who remembered being enslaved. This collection is at the Library & this narrative from Sarah Gudger, age 121, is just one amazing piece of it. https://t.co/RPpE96RzKD #Juneteenth

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

“Yesterday I was visiting my son's school.

I see a bright colored bench in the yard. I asked if this was the only place to sit.

- And he said to me, ′′ No, that's the bench of friends. When someone is lonely or can't find a play partner, they'll sit there and others invite them to play with them."

- I tell him I thought this was great, and I asked him if he used it himself?

- He says: ′′ Yes at the beginning of the year when I was new here.

I sat there and another student came to invite me to play with him. This made me happy. And now when I see someone sitting there, I also invite them to play."

What a great idea on mutual aid and kindness to implement in all playgrounds!

@LynsieThompson The dismantling of public education continues. Their solution is to privatize education as they have done with prisons. #schooltoprisonpipeline
