Mark Grace

@whoiscbrown But more broadly, I'm reminded of something Mark Anderson said to David Brin about a recent development in physics. He said "we couldn't think about this problem in this way 20 years ago, because this way of thinking just wasn't on the menu yet." Grace for our previous selves!

Bell Hooks

To give and receive love is a fundamental joy, says bell hooks. I woke up and read a little bit of her book All About Love and that’s a real nice thing to think about on a Saturday morning.

@EvanDHynes Have you read Emergent Strategy? If not, I think you might really dig it. Dreaming the Dark by Starhawk. Resurgence of the Real by Charlene Spretnak amazed me. I think Evans’ Personal Politics: The Roots of Women's Liberation in the Civil Rights Movement and the New Left is great

Reminder from the excellent book The Talent Code: ā€œEricsson called this process ā€˜deliberate practice’ and defined it as working on technique, seeking constant critical feedback, and focusing ruthlessly on shoring up weaknesses.ā€

@jonathanmendez Two books I've read recently argue that the relatively small number of pro assimilationist leaders were largely opportunists played against traditional leaders. Wilma Mankiller's autobiography and Empire of Fortune by historian Francis Jennings.
