#AbrahamLincoln had a puzzling relationship to #religion. For several years, I researched the role of religion in his life for the Lincoln Home National Historic Site in #Springfield, #Illinois. In 2021, my research focused on religion in the early decades of Springfield’s history through the period of Lincoln’s residency there, which had a formative impact on Lincoln’s own religious faith.

actionnetwork.orgTesla Takedown - Springfield Elon Musk is destroying our democracy, and he's using the fortune he built at Tesla to do it. We are taking nonviolent action at Tesla to stop Musk's illegal coup. ⚡Sell your Teslas, dump your stock, join the picket lines. ⚡ We're tanking Tesla's stock price to stop Musk. ⚡Stopping Musk will help save lives and protect our democracy. The stakes couldn’t be higher. No one is coming to save us. Not politicians, not the media, not the courts. Tesla Takedown is a peaceful protest movement. We oppose violence, vandalism and destruction of property. This protest is a lawful exercise of our First Amendment right to peaceful assembly. #TeslaTakedown #BoycottTesla

"While MSPCA-Angell is working day and night to save these pets, it’s going to take a minimum of $20,000 to cover their care. “We’re gonna do everything that we can to minimize the cost, but the reality is that, when animals come into this severity, it does take a lot of resources to be able to get them to that point,” [MSPCA VP Mike Keiley] added."

Langston Hughes Slept Here: A tour of the Vachel Lindsay Home

Springfield, Illinois, is a Lincoln-haunted town, but other attractions can be found there. Vachel Lindsay, once a much-celebrated American poet, haunts these neighborhoods. And poet Langston Hughes also hallows Springfield’s past.

A good friend and former colleague teaches at a college near #Springfield, OH. One of her students, who is an immigrant from Haiti, missed class and she found out he lied about his excuse. He confessed that he saw armed #ICE goons outside his apartment and was afraid to go outside. HE IS HERE LEGALLY. His papers are in order.

I confess I don't blame him - I wouldn't have gone out either since we are no longer governed by the rule of law.
