The Bookworm Beat 4/24/17 — “watching as the Left continues circling the drain” edition

That’s not a guess or a prediction – that’s a commitment they have made to their fascist followers. They’ve seen what the truth can do to their schemes. After 2016, there’s no way they are going to take a chance on another electoral rejection by us normals, so they don’t even pretend to support free speech anymore. It will be one gender neutral being-one vote, one more time, and then never again.

Quote of the Day

There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs and the hardships of the Negro race before the public.

— Booker T. Washington

Hollywood often relied on high-brow culture in their films, even though their audience was mostly working class. People read more and they were expected to know about classic stories and characters from Western culture.
