Most every science student (biological & social) has now been required to learn about Henrietta Lacks. She plays a vital role in science & consent. Racism & the treatment of Black people in America in the medical community in the past & present still play a larger role in health treatment & disparities. Definitely a must read if you‘re interested in learning about what the Lacks family has endured for generations. #realhistory #honesthistory

“The free man is immoral, because it is his will to depend upon himself and not upon tradition: in all the primitive states of humanity 'evil' is equivalent to 'individual,' 'free,' 'arbitrary,' 'unaccustomed,' 'unforeseen,' 'incalculable.'“ ~Friedrich Nietzsche, 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒂𝒘𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝑫𝒂𝒚

On this National Day of Mourning, I want to dedicate my post to my hero, Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter was someone that lived his life serving the world, knowing he didn‘t need a title to do good. His faith and works speaks volumes about the man he was, and his marriage to Rosalyn was one for the ages.

I‘ve been collecting his books, all signed, for years now, and they mean so much to me. Thank you President Carter for your service.

Leftcoastzen We need more like him , though it seems unlikely in these selfish times . 6mo
