- TIMELINE CLEANSING POSEIDON! a wonderful shelter rescue kitty. He leapt into my arms & began purring & cheek bonking me in the “meet cat” room & immediately captured my heart. He’s an incredibly sweet and good natured kitty.
- Book arrival day! First up is Renata Keller’s “The Fate of the Americas: The Cuban Missile Crisis & the Hemispheric Cold War.” A topic of interest in general & also I was on a “decolonizing the cuban missile crisis” panel a time back & my interest continues. uncpress.org/978146968943...
- And Thomas E. Ricks’s “Waging a Good War” whose original subtitle seems to have been “a military history of the civil rights movement” but my copy has “How the Civil Rights Movement Won its Battles, 1954-1968” www.washingtonindependentreviewofbooks.com/bookreview/w...
- oh yeah, that is genuinely a good book btw would you mind if I offered an interesting book recommendation on a specific point dealing with school integration?Feb 4, 2026 19:22
- Please share, thank you!
- An American Insurrection: The Battle of Oxford, MS, which deals with the matter of integration at the University of Mississippi and James Meredith
- Imho if you discuss school integration in like middle school/high school, I genuinely think you need to open it with Little Rock and then probably close it with Oxford, MS in terms of stuff prior to the Civil Rights Act specifically
