“Keep the fires of freedom burning in our hearts, so that no matter what happens, ain’t gonna let nobody turn us around...Thou has sent us to fight, not just for ourselves, but to fight for this nation so that democracy might exist here for the whole world.”

I appreciate the way Governor Moore speaks up to defend Baltimore ❤️

“Donald Trump, if you are not willing to walk our community, keep our name out of your mouth,” Maryland Gov. Wes Moore said Thursday, before extending an official invitation for the president to visit Baltimore.

I truly enjoyed today's presentation! Next Saturday it will be on the other side of town, in the afternoon, to be accessible to a wider audience.

Join one of the authors of Yoga in the Black Community, Charlene Marie Muhammad, to learn about the history and cultural significance of yoga and how it can be part of the Black community’s journey toward holistic health and well-being. Then participate in chair yoga and a mindfulness session. Programs are Saturday, August 16 (Randallstown Branch), and August 23 (Rosedale Branch).

Beautiful sentiments are expressed here.

Today, the world gives a name to this moment — The International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. They mark it on their calendars. But for us, this day is not counted by pages or numbers. It is counted by heartbeats — the same heartbeats that began in our ancestors and still move through our own chests today.

From the four directions they rise — our peoples. From the white-blanketed lands of the north to the warm islands embraced by the southern seas, the children of the earth stand together. We are the keepers of the first fires, the singers of the ancient songs, the storytellers whose words are older than the oldest stone. We have walked through storms so fierce they tried to strip us bare — and still, here we stand.

We do not gather in the shadow of loss. We gather in the light of what still breathes. The languages of our grandmothers now find their way back into the voices of our children. The drum once again shakes the ground beneath our feet. Our ceremonies rise like smoke, high enough to make the eagles pause mid-flight to listen.

This day does not belong to us alone — it is a reminder to the world: we are not echoes of the past. We are the roots that hold the land together. We are the rivers that carry life. We are the wind that whispers teachings into the ears of those yet to come.

So stand tall, my relatives. Let your songs fill the air. Wear the clothes that speak your history. Speak the words that carry your spirit. Walk upon the land as one whose ancestors still walk beside them.

We are still here. And as long as the sun rises and the rivers flow, we will remain.

êkosi.

I was attracted by the cover image and title of this book, on display at BCPL for disability awareness month. It includes resources in addition to being a fascinating read!

Standing balance flows and savasana on the deck can be delightful before the heat rises.
