Gauff repräsentiert schwarzes Amerika in "schwierigen Zeiten"

Es hätte ihr Moment ganz allein sein können. Aber US-Tennisspielerin Coco Gauff entschied sich nach dem Titelgewinn bei den French Open an die Menschen zu denken, die zuletzt von der amerikanischen Regierung benachteiligt wurden. Die 21-Jährige ist stolz, die Menschen zu repräsentieren, die so aussehen wie sie.

I have read Amanda Gormans 'the hill we climb' again today

This is a part of it:

We lay down our arms so we can reach out our arms to one another.
We seek harm to none and harmony for all.
Let the globe, if nothing else, say this is true:
That even as we grieved, we grew.
That even as we hurt, we hoped.
That even as we tired, we tried.
That we’ll forever be tied together, victorious.
Not because we will never again know defeat, but because we will never again sow division.
Scripture tells us to envision that everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree and no one shall make them afraid.
if we’re to live up to our own time, then victory won’t lie in the blade, but in all the bridges we’ve made.
That is the promise to glade, the hill we climb, if only we dare.

She has #Jewish friends, so she's sorry for posting one of the most #Antisemitic texts of all time.

When did she delete the post? When contacted by the JTA.

THIS is who is got #TheHillWeClimb removed from schools.

And THIS statement of hers is IMO, the MOST telling and sums #Florida book bans up in a nutshell.

Low-literacy people trying to force a low-literacy worldview onto the future of America.

People should want better for their own kids. #bookbans #DeSantis

The Florida mom who sought to ban Amanda Gorman’s poem says she’s sorry for promoting the Protocols of the Elders of Zion

The activist apologized to JTA and to “the Jewish community” for sharing the antisemitic forgery on her Facebook page.

This is what happens when you let a single parent dictate what all children can access in school #libraries and classrooms. Right wingers lie that about supporting #FreeSpeech, but say nothing about #censorship by #WhiteSupremacists. You know why. #TheHillWeClimb should be read.

The Hill We Climb's words
Moved to library section
Stronger than complaint
