Willem Bartsius, The Lute Player With Skulls and Books, circa 1640
Daily Thoughts 06/29/2020
I checked the library Twitter and Facebook Group this morning. I also checked LinkedIn.
I am at work right now. We are starting curbside assistance for items in the library.
I finished reading The US Armed Forces Officer Essays on Leadership, Command, Oath, and Service Identity by Richard M. Swain and Albert C. Pierce. This is an excellent overview of the moral and ethical underpinnings of the United States military foces.
I read some more of How To Be An Antiracist. I am reading about Ibram X. Kendi's parents.
