It began slowly—the plague, the greed, the riots. Revolutionaries rose up behind symbols, murals, & songs, while the masses were fed machinery and religion. Politicians deemed art a dangerous thing. The masses agreed. But they could not wholly silence the artists. These are the stories left behind.

Not every movie theater has to be owned by a national chain or only screen blockbusters. Sometimes we need our art houses to show films for their sheer brilliance and artistry or to laugh at a gloriously bad film. Zach agrees: small theaters are worth keeping. theevergreenecho.org/echo/cinemas...

Writing is an act of rebellion. Writing is an act of creation. Writing is an act of salvation. Writing is an act of exploration. Writing is an act of emotion. Writing is an act of confession. Writing is an act of speculation. Writing is an act of reflection. Keep writing.

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.
