Go Tell it on the Mountain
by James Baldwin
I loved large parts of this book. The writing is beautiful but complex. He lost me during some of the sermons and other very religious moments, but considering what this book is about I can't fault Baldwin for that.

The Necessary Guide to Role Models For Men Boys need role models !! Or we'll mollycoddle them to Milly Molly Mandy-ness Disavow them of their god given power Turn them into "an absolute shower" We must Show them what they can achieve How they can lead With examples of tenacity Perspicacity Human prime meat That won't accept defeat Let them be inspired to be.... As fearless as Greta As brave as Malala Boadicea and Rosa (Luxembourg and Parks) Imaginations like Wharton and Atwood And Muriel Spark's Dream of space with Cristoferreti, Tereshkova and Sharman Or taking to the stage like Eilish or Lauper or Dolly Parton You don't need to "grow a pair!" To breath revolution into the air We will only be fully grown When it doesn't matter if the letter of the chromosome Can be y or can be x And our heroes can be any sex
Poem for #internationalwomensday
Childrens' song liked by my sons.
They = both ?
Growth Mindset - Culture - Values - Singing - Books.
#shelfie [s] of the day
Sons read both of these books. Youngest son is a good cook and has just fixed a problem with the sink in his first little house.
Now I'd better go and water the seedlings 🌱

"Let's form a Union to fight the fascists."
On the need for 'middle power countries' to clarify our shared values. Why was International Law developed? Why do we need more wise, principled men who are not afraid of confident, successful women?

So nice. A beautiful, quiet scene with such a sense of energy to it.
Bryan's sketching always captures a sense of place and reminds me of my time living in Toronto. 'Showing the world one sketch at a time!' 🙋♀️
Trust the magic!
Busy autumnal gardening day today. And after I've finished planting, this is for the base of the gum tree in the native verge garden...

Sketch
Mandurah Sporting Bar and Grill. About ten screens of sports all playing at the same time.
I went to listen to son playing guitar at the opening of shopping centre -2020 before we had some lunch.
It's a pretend oasis of sorts I suppose,for those wishing to escape the elements.

My mum is fortunate to have a pair of blue wrens plus 'friends' to watch in their territory [her native garden].
Always fascinating to have an insight into diversity and genetic survival across species. I am glad I studied animal behaviour in my first degree.

Brave, visionary and queer: the author George Sand www.theguardian.com/books/2026/m...
Welcoming wildflowers of this world.
Climbers with tenancious tendrils, oblivious to the oppressive heat.
Creeping capriciously up slippery black pole-
leaving trail of crescent moon footholds.
