Your ability to control your thoughts — treat it with respect. It’s all that protects your mind from false perceptions — false to your nature, and that of all rational beings.
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations (3.9)
Just gonna say this is actually the first picture I’ve actually seen of wounded female veterans. Now that I think about it they are (in my eyes at least) hugely forgotten. Some female service members have been in combat and hit by IEDs outside the wire but it’s always the males you hear about and never the females. I think this picture is great and everyone should see it so please share it!

1971, London: 47-year-old novelist, James Baldwin, sat down to have an honest and open discussion with 28-year-old poet, poet Nikki Giovanni, about the state of affairs between the Black men and women of the time. The wide-ranging conversation explores Black life in America, the struggle for racial justice and evolving gender roles, while also offering insight into the work and artistic process of two literary icons.
