Just noticing American Aquarium’s label.

4 September 1930 | Czech Jewish boy František (Franta) Bass was born in Brno.

He was incarcerated in Theresienstadt ghetto on 2 December 1941. He wrote poetry there.
Franta was murdered in Auschwitz on 30 October 1944.

His poem "The Garden”.

A little garden,
Fragrant and full of roses,
The path is narrow
And a little boy walks along it.

A little boy, a sweet boy,
Like that growing blossom.
When the blossom comes to bloom,
The little boy will be no more.

I notice the #Promoted tag on Twitter vanished today. It gets worse every single day.

Thirteen years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment.

Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors.

Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

I was so relieved when trump lost in 2020. I thought we would get our bearings again. I was literally nauseous during his campaign & reign of power. I wanted him off my screen & out of the news - hoping he would fade in his ability to influence And yes - I wanted him held accountable. Now, seeing that 30% (?) of the country still are in his cult, a major tv station still shilling for him, & the GOP completely corrupt & morally bankrupt & carrying his water —- I’m once again sick to my stomach. Btw- I still believe that truth & Justice will overcome & we will be ok.

Florida MAGA Gov Desantis is signing HB 7 to "ban teachers from making students feel guilt or shame about their race because of historical events."

I've said this before.

Some white Americans were abolitionists, and many were enslavers. If learning about America's history of racism makes you feel guilty, then you need to explain why you associate more with enslaver guilt than with abolitionist pride.

Might just be that you're telling on yourself.

Thousands trapped on Pine Ridge burn clothes for warmth in wake of storm

With a twinge of cold in her toes and a tone of concern tinted by exhaustion, Anna Halverson relayed the message: “We’re in a really extreme emergency down here.”

This is one of the hardest & most important warnings for us all.

Perpetrators were people who accepted and followed an ideology that made them believe that they are better than others and that rationalized and promoted hatred & evil. It became their everyday live.

They were not monsters. They were people who did horrible and monstrous things on the behalf of this ideology. And this is the scary part of the story.
