National Constitution Center just released their interactive Declaration of Independence, to match their interactive US Constitution. So many people are claiming these documents, but few people take the time to read and understand them. These free educational resources are brilliant, and, if you ever find yourself in Philadelphia, be sure to visit the museum. It is a truly inspiring space. https://constitutioncenter.org/declaration

Amiable Thank you! 6d

A page on Threads, Whiteness Studies, has listed several important books that are very relevant to our current timeline. I have a few & read a few but found many new ones to read. Linking list if anyone is interested. It links to a Black owned bookstore. https://shop.mrwelltravelled.com/collections/whiteness-studies #antifabookclub

Cuilin Thank you 🙏 6d

A well researched and resonant account of the turbulent months between Abraham Lincoln‘s election and the outbreak of the Civil War. Known for his ability to turn historical nonfiction into page-turning drama, Larson delivers a compelling narrative, but this time, with an even deeper reliance on primary sources and firsthand accounts.

Forget the Alamo: The True Story of the Myth That Made Texas | Bryan Burrough, Chris Tomlinson, Jason Stanford

This book destroys the myths about the Alamo, to include the people involved and the reasons for the battle. The main reason for the Texas revolt, which included the defense of the Alamo, was slavery. Mexico had banned it, infuriating American settlers.

The second half of the book looks at the strange history of its preservation and cultural context. Fun tidbit, musician Phil Collins is a major player in the site‘s recent history.

A good general biography of Reagan and his times with a focus on the assassination attempt by John Hinckley. An act that in many ways added to the Reagan mystic.

An earlier edition of this book sat on my parents' bookshelf for most of my life. I'm finally diving in. 😅

dabbe I can't wait to read what you think about it. I've read bit and pieces but never the whole. People at my high school tried to ban it. And this was before the #cheetosatan years. 😵‍💫 2w
lil1inblue @dabbe I got through Chapter 1 last night. I have a feeling I'm going to be posting about this one a lot. And I am unsurprised, though saddened, that people have tried/are trying to ban it. It challenges our savior narrative. 😏 2w
