Unquenchable thirst for knowledge. Big reader. Still waiting 4 ERA. Furious at prison industrial complex & Americans' denial of death. Photographer. PNW native. I believe that nature heals.

✨ Last night’s auroras over Alaska looked like angel wings opening above the forest…
One of the most breathtaking displays this region has seen in years. 🌌💜✨

In 2019 a group of Bolivian indigenous women aka the “Climbing Cholitas” summitted Mount Aconcagua, Argentina (highest point - Southern Hemisphere) The women had previously worked for years as cooks for mostly rich male mountaineers. They climbed in traditional dress #WomensArt

There are too many books for too few readers.
“Someone who read just three books in 2025 did more book reading than 57% of Americans. Reading five books is more than two-thirds of Americans, and 10 books is more than 81% of Americans read.”

Clint Smith’s examination of the way slavery in the USA is (or is not) commemorated is thoughtful, poetic, profound, personal-yet-universal in scope, & thoroughly researched. That he is a compassionate person of integrity & conviction really comes through in his writing. Highly recommended. 💡📚💙
