Here is your annual #Thanksgiving reminder that "Over the River and Through the Wood" was written by Lydia Maria Child, a fierce abolitionist who waged a lifelong struggle for racial justice in the US. She loved her country; she recognized its faults; she fought to fix it. 🙏 🙏for her example!

Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look at myself in the mirror and cry
Lord, what’re doin’ doing to me?
I spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief Lord
Somebody (Somebody)
Ooh, somebody (Somebody)
Can anybody find me
Somebody to love

Best justification for General education programs I have seen in a while. ⬇️
Thinking a lot lately about the simple fact that college allows people to spend about 15 weeks immersed in a disciplinary conversation with an expert in that field. And what a special thing that is.

The LoC is a national treasure! I’m so grateful for the expertise of specialists like Wanser. Just watch her in action.
In Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, 162 years ago today, President Lincoln gave one of the most famous speeches in American history, extolling the sacrifices of the men who died in the battle there. There are five known manuscript copies of the Gettysburg Address. The Library of Congress has two of those.

This makes me smile. I read a Merriam-Webster dictionary for fun as a kid. The gazetteers in the back, the maps, all of it. Still have it in my office, but now think it needs a friend.
