My friend June was murdered last night in a cruel hit-and-run. He deserved better than this. If you have any information, please call the @PhillyPolice! No biker, pedestrian, or driver should experience this.

“Before books, there were stories. In them was distilled the knowledge each generation wished to pass on to the next. Storytelling was (and is) a form of power. It was time binding: it linked then to now. Told eloquently, at the right time to the right listeners, a story shaped the future” ― Nancy Marie Brown, The Real Valkyrie
