So here is more for you @geriruth
At the end of this speech to teachers, #Baldwin restated the thesis in these words, more frequently quoted:
"I began by saying that one of the paradoxes of education was that precisely at the point when you begin to develop a conscience, you must find yourself at war with your society. It is your responsibility to change society if you think of yourself as an educated person."

🧵 1/2: Today is the 60th anniversary of #JamesBaldwin vs. William Buckley debating at #Cambridge the question "Is the #AmericanDream at the expense of the #American Negro?"
I urge you to watch the full debate below, not only to witness #Baldwin's extraordinary oratory skills, his emotional intelligence & foresight, but also to suffer the pretentious, prejudiced & wildly unaware argument of Buckley, which explains the wilful laisser-faire attitude to #whitesupremacy.

10/2/23 Open 6-9p. No open containers please.
It's Banned Books Week. Are any of these on a ban list? Possibly. However, books aren't banned at Bonnett's. Many of the best books ever have been the target of bans, and I try to keep the classics in stock. Stop in and see!
