Welcome to Litsy!

There is a "what radicalized you?" trend that hits social media every now and again. For me, it was just how I was raised. My #dad has always been my best history teacher and my political role model. The tagged book is among many he introduced me to. I couldn't find a good recent picture, so here's some of my favorite throwbacks.

The JP Morgan library celebrating 100 years and giving due credit to Belle. 😄 Gorgeous collection - hope to see it someday.

Got myself a western spoof! 🤠👏🏾 Everette is such a fantastic satirist that I‘m looking forward to it when I get there.

Students would learn so much from this graphic book, conversations are needed in history. As an adult this all makes so much sense and yes I still have questions. I‘d start from present and then move into past histories…but I‘m a science teacher so what do I know?!😏

Cranberry orange soda bread 😋 from the tagged book. Super easy, but don‘t expect it to be dessert sweet. My kids will wonder where the sugar is, same with scones. 🙃

Whether you peacefully march, call & write letters to Congress, boycott, educate, donate to civil rights groups &/or provide childcare, thank you for however you resist, American bookworms! #handsofflibraries #handsoffschools #resist

Feeling proud of myself 🤓 Revisited this after 5 years. (It was one of the 1st books I ever logged here!) My first go-around was extremely challenging & most of Davis‘s analysis went over my head. But since then I have learned a lot about Marxism & the labor movement, & I‘m happy to report that I was able to follow the argument this time around! Can confirm it is a work of true genius 🤯
