The recycling facility that went in up in flames in Indiana created a toxic plume of smoke that forced thousands to evacuate. It's an egregious, horrifying situation — and also one plastics fire of many. theverge.com/2023/4/14/2368… via @Verge

Mass public ignorance is the predictable result of inadequate elementary and secondary education. An ignorant populace is ripe for manipulation by despots. We reap what we sow. inquirer.com/opinion/januar…

David was fearless in life and in music. He leaves behind a tremendous void as far as sheer personality and talent in this world. I'm lucky to be friends with such an amazing man. RIP Brother ❤️🕯️

In 1927 Philadelphia Quakers were advised to take “care in speech” using only statements that “convey the exact truth without exaggeration or omission of essential facts.” They were reminded: “false impressions may be conveyed by actions and appearance, no less than by words.”

Quaker Helen Steven wrote that she found comfort in: “the idea of a God who is “closer than breathing”, the very ground of our being. This shifts the entire focus of the divine .. to an immediate immanent presence within every one of us, constantly present and constantly loving.”

“Protests are well known, and popular. The trouble is, when I look back on the one-off protests I’ve joined over the years, I don’t remember a single one that changed the policy we were protesting against.” —George Lakey @peace_news peacenews.info/node/9240/why-…

Just finished the graphic novel "Prophet Against Slavery" by @LesterMecca & Paul Buhle based on @MarcusRediker's "The Fearless Benjamin Lay." Highlights @JohanGaltung's typology of violence/peace mediated through the Quaker tradition before the Revolutionary war with slavery.

Five years ago today, the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons opened for signature in New York. More countries should sign and ratify it – and work to bring the era of nuclear weapons to a permanent end. #nuclearban #TPNW #UNGA

"My Quaker education didn't just point me on one path," Paige Martin says. "They guided me on a journey…through dialogue, through inquiry." Being able to help other young people on their similar journeys is what prompted Paige to become a teacher as well. fdsj.nl/education

In 1929 Quaker scientist Arthur Eddington drew a parallel between Quakers and scientists in their rejection of creeds: “The spirit of seeking which animates us refuses to regard any kind of creed as its goal.” He felt that a “living belief” should be open to undiscovered truths.
