Children are never racist, sexist, or homophobic. Until they're taught to be. Bigots are our society's real groomers. #endbigotry #endracism #endsexism #endhomophobia #bigotry #racism #sexism #homophobia #equalrights #civilrights #equality #protest #bicentennial #publicschool

Letter to the Qld Transport Minister asking to buy back the former #Bicentennial Bikeway section at Queen's Wharf.

https://roffey.au/static/bicentennial-letter-public.pdf

I am suggesting that the government buy back the bikeway as its current operator Destination Brisbane Consortium is an unsuitable operator for the corridor. They have installed non-compliant fixtures, blocked the corridor with an event and set the speed unreasonably low at 10 km/h.

The Star (part of the consortium) is facing liquidity issues which could make for an opportune time to purchase the asset and protect it as a corridor going forward.

On the porch of my apartment, looking down Bridge Street, during the Bicentennial. Mifflintown, 1976. A friend says the only change in 50 years is the river bridge replacement. #bicentennial #mifflintown #smalltown #smalltowns #village #villages #pennsylvania #eastcoast

As teens, we loved the "Finger Grave" in Academia. The entire hand was on a metal dowel and could be lifted off, and played with. 1976. #cemetery #cemeteries #graveyard #graveyards #countrychurch #countrychurches #church #churches #1970s #1976 #bicentennial #pennsylvania
