Joe Biden on grief →
austinkleon: Vice President Joe Biden, in a moving speech to families of fallen troops on Friday, recounted the dark days following the tragic deaths of his wife and daughter and talked about having thoughts of suicide.

best thing I did at work today was produce this: theyoungturks: Michael Shure talks to the NAACP’s chairman emeritus, Julian Bond, about the board of directors’ historic vote in support of equal marriage rights. “The black community has been — unfairly, I think — characterized as being overwhelmingly hostile to this idea of gay rights and gay marriage,” Bond says. “Even though we didn’t time...

turnabout: A gay couple first attempted to marry in 1970, just a few months after the famous riots outside the Stonewall Bar in New York City; but marriage was not then taken up by the gay-rights movement. Matrimony seemed not only out of reach but out of touch with the liberationist, libertine ethos of the time. We were supposed to be breaking the fetters of conventionality, reinventing...

Sendak lives on for a rapt group of teenage wild... →
I asked the class if they knew who Maurice Sendak was, and none did. I asked if any of them knew the book “Where the Wild Things Are,” and a few said they’d seen the movie. In 1993, Sendak told NPR, “Children surviving childhood is my obsessive theme and my life’s concern.” In a 1986 interview with Gross, he said, “Being a child was being a creature...
