Lea<p>I saw an intriguing interview with Elaine Weiss, author of the new book "Spell Freedom -- The Underground Schools that Built the Civil Rights Movement". Highly recommend watching: <br><a href="https://youtu.be/o85dvpYmyBE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtu.be/o85dvpYmyBE</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>(Also "interesting" is that her book event scheduled to take place at the Jimmy Carter Library was suddenly cancelled by the newly installed leadership of the National Archives after the previous Archivist of the US and much of the leadership of the National Archives were fired by our new overlords.)</p><p>IMO one reason our democracy has fallen to where it is today is that students are no longer being educated on how government works or their rights and responsibilities as citizens, making them more vulnerable to political propaganda and apathy. So I think there are important lessons we all can learn from this history that could be applied to dealing with what we are facing today. </p><p>Info about the book: <br><a href="https://elaineweiss.com/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">elaineweiss.com/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/History" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>History</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/BlackHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackHistory</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/CivilRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilRights</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>democracy</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/VotingRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VotingRights</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a></p>
