CGiii Comment

The Negro Speaks of Rivers by Langston Hughes - Give Mr Hughes the credit he deserves [not just permission by...], great words from and by a great writer.

because resistance is our mental health - not great words. Come home children, come home. No comment.

When you stand on the shoulder of a giant, make sure the shoe [nearly] fits!
