Thank you, @stevebrusatte.bsky.social, for recommending The Last Days of the Dinosaurs! “[T] latest and most engaging glimpse at what it would have been like to experience the carnage. In doing so, Black pioneered a new genre of narrative prehistorical nonfiction.” 🦖 ☄️ 🌱 🐆

Pulled myself together and had a wonderful evening at Rochester Museum & Science Center. My mother and I went on a guided tour of the Hodinöšyönih Exhibit and Museum Vault. #roc

I feel like I’m in a fog today. So tired. Dealt with some legal stuff with my father’s estate and went to Cherokee class. Might take today off from drawing.

It's great that we can— and it speaks volumes about the kindness & generosity of most humans— But It's REALLY fucked up that while we all help our fellow brothers & sisters when they're struggling, or need a quick infusion of cash; or support Art via crowd funding M/Billionaires hoard & hoard

Unlike Canada, the U.S. has not had a truth and reconciliation commission around boarding schools–assimilation schools that systematically abused and neglected Native kids. Proposed Congressional legislation could change that. www.cherokeephoenix.org/news/bill-se...
