Jeanne Walker Harvey

"One of her most well-known quotes is, 'We are fortunate in the U.S. to have a stable and durable democratic government. But we can’t be complacent in assuming this good fortune will continue… It is the citizens of our nation who must preserve our system of government, and we cannot forget that.'"

Sandra Day O'Connor advocated for "democracy, equal justice under the law, and the rule of law.

She even carried a copy of the Constitution in her pocketbook." - @mollygolden.bsky.social ⚖️

Oh my! I'm so glad you were able to get there. Memorable I'm sure

Gratitude to Jeanne for spreading the word! At a time when religious leaders are protesting injustice- this book is so relevant.📚

My pleasure! It's such an inspiring book! Did you make it to the book event back East?

"Although I was in the comfort of my own home, and didn’t have to ride through snow, sleet, rain, and intense heat, there were days I felt like I’d ridden thousands of miles in order to polish this manuscript until it did justice to these bold and brave women."- @laurenkerstein.bsky.social 📚🏇

As I wrote in our picture book biography about painter Alma Thomas, the White House is “a symbol of the American people.” Thank you to the Obamas who respected & valued the White House, its history and architecture, American diverse artists, and the American people. @eastwestlit.bsky.social

"Finally, about 50 years after Chandra first talked about

stars disappearing, he won the Nobel Prize for his work.

More than the recognition, what mattered to him was that,

finally, the world saw the truth."-@shrurao.bsky.social
