Finally printed and hung posters of these Found Poems I drew last year for #NationalPoetryMonth It’s still April, so this counts as on time- right? I just prefer to use a delayed time table… 😝🤷🏻♀️🤣 @H9Library#LISDLib
Wow. Incredible testimony about the countless American men and women who have given their lives to secure the freedoms we now take for granted. This includes the freedom to chose what we read. I am humbled by, and grateful for, their sacrifice. #FreedomtoRead
Meet 100-year-old Grace Linn.
Grace is a widow of a WWII soldier who died fighting the Nazis. She calls herself “a mother of liberty”.
At a recent Martin County School Board meeting in Florida, she gave a passionate speech against the banning of books.
“My husband, Robert Nicoll, was killed in action in World War II at a very young age. He was only 26, defending our democracy, constitution and freedoms. One of the freedoms that the Nazis crushed was the freedom to read the books that they banned... Banning books and burning books are the same. Both are done for the same reason – fear of knowledge. Fear is not freedom. Fear is not liberty. Fear is control. My husband died as a father of freedom,” she said.
Thank you Grace!
