Hoping to find everyone here! Please come say hello!

Entre el 6 y el 25 de julio de 1937 se desató la 'Batalla de Brunete', una de las más cruentas de la Guerra Civil.
La República trató de levantar el sitio de las tropas franquistas sobre Madrid.
Hubo cerca de 40.000 bajas.
Honor y gloria a los que lucharon contra el fascismo🌹✊

Tal día como hoy, 6 de julio de 1937, el Ejército Popular de la República inicia una ofensiva en la zona central de la Península. Comienza, así, la Batalla de Brunete.

Gerda Taro was one of the early women pioneers of photojournalism, and her images published in VU magazine showed the real life struggles of the Republican army. Taro died in 1937 during the army's retreat from Brunete.

Happy pride month librarians! Just a reminder: refusing to purchase or display lgbt+ books that are needed in your community because someone might complain is just as much censorship as removing books when someone does complain.

9 May 1921. Sophie Scholl was born in Forchtenberg, Germany. She was a member of the anti Nazi resistance group, The White Rose. She was convicted of treason on 22 February 1943 after distributing leaflets at the University of Munich. As a result, she was executed by guillotine.

Had a fabulous day at Mass Poetry with Kip Wilson, Padma Venkatraman #TheBridgeHome #BornBehindBars, and Rebecca Caprara chatting about hope, heart, and honesty in novels in verse with difficult topics. I love sharing ideas and learning from these amazing friends. #masspoetryfestival #mg #ya #kidlit

This Sunday! 🎉📚 Join Padma Venkatraman #TheBridgeHome #BornBehindBars, Kip Wilson, Rebecca Caprara and I for a deep dive discussion on Heart, Hope, & Honesty at the Mass Poetry Festival. 🎉📚 festival.masspoetry.org
