Greetings Luna! What are we reading today?
I've been reading _A People's History of the United States_ by Howard Zinn. It's a tough read in that it shows that a lot of what's happening in the modern world today is, in fact, not new--but simultaneously it's comforting in an odd way. It shows that the current situation isn't new, just that we're more informed about it, and I feel that knowing the history is important for everyone. I spoke about it with a coworker and described it as like eating one's vegetables as a child: it may not be a pleasant experience, but eventually (hopefully!) one learns to appreciate it, and it's indeed important to eat well.
