Who else thinks that buying banned books as presents is a great idea this year?

If civil war breaks out, meet up at the library. They don’t know where that is.

SOMETHING TO KEEP YOU OFF THE LEDGE:

"If you ever get the blues about the status of American culture, there are still more public libraries than there are McDonald's. During the worst of the Depression, not one public library closed its doors."

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."

I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.

Excerpt from Timothy Snyder's "On Tyranny:" 

"1. Do not obey in advance."

"Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do."

A lil tip for the folks with shoe polish on their lips today :)
