The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

“MAGA isn’t drawn to Trump because he's smart or competent. They’re drawn to him because he tells uneducated, insecure, angry people that their stupidity & ignorance is actually strength… They don’t want leadership. They want validation for being ignorant &Trump gives it to them every single day.” ⬇️

“MAGA isn’t drawn to Trump because he's smart or competent. They’re drawn to him because he tells uneducated, insecure, angry people that their stupidity and ignorance is actually strength.
He gives them a script where nothing is ever their fault. Blame immigrants. Blame ‘elites’. Blame Democrats, blame anyone except the person in the mirror.
He turns racism and sexism into a political identity. He makes being uninformd feel heroic. And MAGA eats it up beccause it saves them from having tio grow, learn, or change.
They don’t want leadership. They want validation for being ignorant. And Trump gives it to them every single day.”

The most underrated act of kindness is letting people be. Let them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love, or get excited about something they don’t understand. Everyone has something that lights them up. Let them shine, even if it’s not your thing. @ 3amThoughts
