INVITATION: My book, White Too Long, & 6 other religion books, were banned from the US Naval Academy.
The racist "The Bell Curve" & white supremacist's/Steven Miller's favorite "The Camp of the Saints" are still there.

But @aarweb.bsky.social is standing up.

How terrific to see Sess start! Looking forward to the analysis.

Imma steal that specification, if you don't mind.

381 books removed from the library of the U.S. Navy Academy Here is The New York Times: Maya Angelou’s seminal autobiography, “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,” and books on the Holocaust were included on the Navy’s list of 381 books that were removed from the U.S. Naval Academy’s Nimitz Library on the Annapolis, Md., campus this week because their subject matter was seen as being related to so-called diversity, equity and inclusion topics.

My bracket has died, and I don't care. What a game.

Does timing have anything to do with his impact? I want to believe that he is a terrific catalyst, but I wonder if *when* he came on matters at all, given their lead and the time left. I know he opened the scoring early at Wolves. But Arsenal is not Wolves. Still, I loved seeing him on the right.

The list of awesome humans.

As a diehard Cubbies fan, I am inclined to agree. But I’m not convinced that the Red Sox or Cardinals would have been better choices…😏

Heartbreaking

We will raise a glass in your honor, sir. Get to bed early tonight.🤍🖤🤍
