Feel Good Friday: Juneteenth

 
Feel Good Friday: Juneteenth

Feel Good Friday: Juneteenth

A weekly newsletter sharing instances of hope, humor, and humanity.

Happy Juneteenth! Here are a few of the cheering or compelling things I’ve come across this week. As always, if you have anything you’d like to share – articles, podcasts, books, interesting finds – email me at cambria [at] simplyrecipes [dot] com with the title “Feel Good Friday.” Thanks for being a part of our community!

What I liked this week:

  • In honor of Juneteenth here’s an interview we did last November with Toni Tipton-Martin, award-winning historian, author, and journalist, about her book, Jubilee.
  • Want to know more about Juneteenth? Read this.
  • I just started using this Chrome extension that tells me how much sunshine is left in the day, down to the second, every time I open a new tab. The developer says the “hope is this gets more people away from their screens and out into the world.”
  • The Lockdown Plays: new plays in podcast form!
  • For history buffs: In May the National Trust for Historic Preservation “unlocked” 31 historical sites for virtual exploration. The collection is still online!
  • The Redemption. Absolutely gorgeous work by Tawny Chatmon.
  • I’ve read some great things about this book. Get Out of My Head: Inspiration for Overthinkers In an Anxious World“Aimed at a modern audience looking for support and community, this beautifully illustrated guide offers a joyful, manageable way to deal with anxiety and quiet stressful thoughts through easy exercises, bite-sized takeaways, and calming visuals.”

Wishing you a healthy, hopeful weekend.
