Thank you for loving libraries, for supporting libraries, for being library people, Audre Lorde & Toni Morrison 💜 Happy Birthday! This will always be your day ✨ 📖
Black and white images of Audra Lorde and Toni Morrison. Text reads: Happy birthday to literary giants, library legends... Audre Lorde & Toni Morrison Image of Toni Morrison seemingly pondering or speaking, wearing a tie. Text reads: My second job as a teenager was shelving books at the only library in Lorain, Ohio. Every shift started with a tall stack of returned books-fiction, history, drama, poetry, everything. It didn't pay much, but it was magical. Then I got fired. The trouble was that instead of replacing the books on the shelves, I kept reading them. A title would catch my eye, I'd crack the book open for just a quick look, and pretty soon I'd forget the stack of returns. I didn't get far in my career as a librarian, but that experience opened my eyes and shaped my future. That's what libraries do. TONI MORRISON LETTER TO QUEENS PUBLIC LIBRARY 2018 Black and white powerful images (x2) of Audre Lorde standing with her hands in her pockets. Text reads: "I was writing seriously by the time I was in high school, and I knew it was something I would always want to do. But how was I to earn a living? I didn't especially want to teach. I did want to give other people that kind of joy that I found from books, and libraries were the places I knew and felt good in, so it was natural enough that I should become a librarian." -Audre Lorde

The Stonewall Riots happened because trans people, particularly of color, rose up against state violence. You can’t even begin to tell the story without our trans ancestors and elders. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...
U.S. Park Service Strikes Transgender References From Stonewall Website
The “T” was removed in references to L.G.B.T.Q.+ on the official site for the Greenwich Village monument, which marks a milestone in the fight for gay rights.

The U.S. just bullied Colombia to make them accept deportation flights. Flights where Colombians are handcuffed and dehumanized.

The U.S. has always been a bully, but that bully has now become a thug.

One of my students said one of their favorite words in ᏣᎳᎩ is ᎨᏎᏍᏗ (gesesdi) meaning “it will be,” because they use it as an affirmation. I thought that was beautiful. ☺️
