This is what we all should remember.

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

During Trump’s last term, he made over 30,000 false or misleading claims. It’s always important to verify facts. For instance, he once stated that ‘raking the forest’ could help prevent forest fires.

The sad and inevitable truth is in another 10 years, when it is all said and done and it is irrefutable Israel committed a genocide in Palestine, there will be many a handwringing think piece from those who defend Israel's actions now, claiming 'we didn't know'. They know. Remember that they knew.

They don’t know where, or what it is!

A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: "I am so tired of waiting, Aren't you, For the world to become good And beautiful and kind? Let us take a knife And cut the world in two -- And see what worms are eating At the rind."

We need to all agree right now to bully JK Rowling off of this platform the second she arrives.

Never forget this. The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.
