I'm so excited to share my Oldster Questionnaire. I worked on it w/the same angst I imagine someone working on their dissertation! Went back & forth on what to say but decided all I could do was be as authentic as possible. Thanks @saribotton.bsky.social! :) oldster.substack.com/p/this-is-55...

“I don’t care what’s proper, what’s age-appropriate, what’s ‘lady like.’ Freedom to me means living the way I want. That feels more important than anything else. ”

Protesters at anti-war protest in Boston, May 1971 These photos along with others (and paintings going back to colonial times) that document protest for all kinds of rights over 250 yrs are on display at the Copley Branch of BPL for exhibit called REVOLUTION! 250 YEARS OF ART + ACTIVISM IN BOSTON

photos of white protesters being attacked by police: one man who is resisting with a smile while they pull his hair and legs and a woman biting a policeman's arm. Exhibit text: The Boston Public Library holds major collections related to Boston press photography, most notably the Boston Herald-Traveler Photo Morgue. Just as contemporary press coverage of protests helps to spread the message of those demonstrating for change, these collections provide important documentation of prior activist movements and may inform continued activism today.
