Had the opportunity to see @michaelfanone.bsky.social speak today. Thank you so much for your service.

Get well soon!

This is the type of work that we are doing over at myflyinguniversity.org

I think it’s important to remember that a lot of everyday people risked their lives hiding art from the Nazis. It’s a very powerful form of resistance to ensure that books, art, research, music, and media survive. You can start now. #history #nazigermany #worldwarii #resistance #fuckice

"Libraries were such an important part of my childhood, and they're an important part of my life today. I visit my local library to research, to read, to write, and to be inspired. I'm deeply grateful for our nation’s libraries and librarians."—Gene Luen Yang #Librarians #Libraries #ILA

More Americans need to learn about the benefits of libraries, so help spread the word.
