This could also translate to library activism and the increase of #censorship challenges. We can't hide behind @ALALibrary bylaws and proclamations without putting up a fight for everyone's right to information, even though we are clearly "on the right side of history".

I hardly ever post here anymore, but I've been reading "History, Abolition, and the Ever-Present Now in Antebellum American Writing" by @JeffreyInsko and I have noticed a huge parallel to today's social issues...

(10) And this is just one chapter of this provocative book! I would highly recommend @JeffreyInsko's book "History, Abolition, and the Ever-Present Now in Antebellum American Writing". I would say "where ever books are sold", but support your local library first! 😉

That quote is from my book "The Squatter and the Don" written in 1885. We have a lot of lessons to remember.

I'm such a delicious meal.

That being said, I am on Bumble and Hinge and Coffee Meets Bagel...
