Historian here. We almost never use statues to teach history. We have a whole bunch of more efficient tools at our disposal, like, you know, BOOKS. What’s happening is that these young people HAVE learned the history, and that’s why they’re pulling down the statue. 💪🏽

Same day. Leadership matters.

@stynnelahl I'll take a peek tomorrow on my walk! 😊🌺

[Jessica Eichlin @jaeichlin]

@stynnelahl I tried to catch a peek on my walk earlier today but they must be in your backyard! They're gorgeous 😍

[Jessica Eichlin @jaeichlin]

@MiriamCadyPhD Oh intriguing! @stynnelahl you're ordering it, right??

[Nancy Pelosi @SpeakerPelosi]

Women were not *given* the right to vote.

They won it for themselves through sheer force of will.

Generations of women & girls fought to be heard.

Today, we honor their leadership as we mark 101 years since the House passed the 19th Amendment.

Perhaps something is gravely wrong with a system where billionaires add $400 billion to their wealth during a pandemic that ravages the rest of the population?

[Jessica Eichlin @jaeichlin]

@katrinagulliver @_thesilence9 @amandaeherbert You should. 😍😍

As the rich get richer and unemployment hits nearly 40% it's a good time to remember that trickle down economics was always a scam.

Dear neighbors,
I promise I'm not coughing because I'm sick, I'm coughing because I inhaled a bunch of water while trying to take a drink. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@_thesilence9 I think half the people I follow on Twitter are food historians 😅

We need a national vote by mail system now.

Shout out to yet another news outlet for having no idea what library staff do

[Jessica Eichlin @jaeichlin]

I don't know what reference services will look like when we reopen, but I'm thankful to still be connecting with patrons now, if only through email.

[Jessica Eichlin @jaeichlin]

Just received, via our director, a lovely thank you letter from one of the last patrons I helped before we closed. It's making me miss in-person reference work even more.

[Jessica Eichlin @jaeichlin]

I would like to go to there.
