pickI read this a few months ago, but I hope many more people pick it up now. Recommend. 🇺🇦
Happy Black History month. For the people in the back, Happy Black History month. I will be celebrating ALL month. Just like AAPI, Women, Native American, Pride, Disability, and any other marginalized group!!! Check out black authors, biographies, fiction, graphic novels, critical race theory, or cookbooks. Don‘t forget to keep reading banned books!!!! #blm #readbannedbooks #black365 #resist
p. 137: 'True peace is not merely the absence of some negative force - tension, confusion, or war; it is the presence of some positive force - justice, good will, and brotherhood.'

It seems so relevant today to quote Martin Luther King for today's #MondayMoments
Happy MLK day.

Happy MLK Day! Thank you Dr.King for being the face of those before you and after you. We do not just celebrate you, but how your work has inspired many and how you been inspired from the people that have come before you. Today we honor not just you but the unnamed folks that continue the fight for equality and justice for all people.
pickHis various letters are illuminating, his Philippic against Antony is furious & damning, and his expositions on Duties & Old Age are still relevant today. The style in his written letters & essays may be more accessible to modern readers than his speeches, which can get long in the tooth. But stick with it. As a window into Ancient Rome & into the mind of the most celebrated orator of his time, his insight is still penetrating & meaningful.
"Life's course is invariable - nature has one path only, and you cannot travel along it more than once. Every stage of life has its own characteristics: boys are feeble, youths in their prime are aggressive, middle-aged men are dignified, old people are mature. Each one of these qualities is ordained by nature for harvesting in due season." - from On Old Age
