Course Examines How Newspapers Covered Lynchings
Student journalists are using spreadsheets and databases to examine one of the darkest chapters in American history.The Conversation U.S. (OHF WEEKLY)
Is #peace possible between #Israel and #Palestine? A compelling article in @TheEconomist argues it's not only possible but imperative, and offers some practical steps to get there. Perhaps idealistic, not to say utopian but at least someone is thinking about it which gives me hope.

This small, unremarkable-looking tree in Glasgow's Botanic Gardens has a surprising and poignant history which starts half a world and more than half a century away.
On the 9th of August 1945, the US dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Nagasaki in Japan. While almost every living thing was incinerated in the blast, a Kaki tree (known in Britain as a Persimmon tree) somehow survived.

Today I woke up to the first snowfall! Snow always brings such a unique taste of silence.
And so I think it's a wonderful time for a new article that will perhaps bring you some silence too as today I contemplate exactly that.

Elderâs Rest | Rustling Leaves
An article about listening, curiosity, silence, and speech in meditation as well as in relationships. It is inspired by a pithy saying by one of the Desert Mothers and Fathers, the first Christian nuns and monks dwelling in deserts.rustling-leaves.blog
105 years ago today, an armistice was signed meant to end war between France and Germany.
November 11: a day of remembrance, to mourn the dead, to empathize with survivors and victims and honor their losses, to appreciate war's terrible toll and wish for the blessing of peace everywhere. Today, France and Germany are at peace, staunch friends and allies to a degree that was hard to imagine in 1918, or in 1945. I want to see hope in that.
