1. Jose Hermosillo is US citizen who was wrongly jailed in an immigration detention facility for 10 days The administration says he "turned himself in" to the Border Patrol and told them he was a Mexican who crossed the border illegally. I interviewed Hermosillo. He says the government is lying.

EVERY HUMAN BEING OF ANY RACE IS ENTITLED TO DUE PROCESS OF THE LAW. A TRIAL. A JUDGE. A JURY. ATTORNEYS. Pass it on before we all lost the right because the abuse we allow of other people will come home to roost.

Thank you for everything, school librarians & library workers! At a loss for words thinking of how you somehow find a way to continue doing your unnecessarily stressful jobs. I have to think your library kids are a big part of why. Whatever the reason… thank you. We love you, we support you 💛

Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books? They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are very good www.thriftbooks.com
