When William Ernest Henley was 16 his left leg was amputated due to tuberculosis... even as he fought successfully to save his right leg. Several years later, in 1875, he wrote Invictus (Latin for unconquered). "Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed." - Invictus

Bloodied but unbowed. In 2020 Minneapolis protested the murder of George Floyd and were met with rubber bullets and tear gas. Now protesters are simply executed. We stand with Minneapolis... still and forever unbowed. Invictus. youtu.be/wWKSoxG1K7w?...
