A new book! Looks fascinating: 'Prisoners’ Bodies ... on the history of the ordinary prisoners’ movement ... that sought to revolutionize the prison system in Ireland between 1972 and 1985.' For in the Justice System and beyond.

Love this quote by John F Kennedy promoting the 'arsenal of knowledge' in public libraries for a successful society.

Appropriate to retweet thread with some rare histories of education. Includes one about rise and demise of Philadelphia School, led by the dynamic duo of Willard and Spackman. Remember to read their biographies on Wikipedia.
