Not because we will never again know defeat, but because we will never again sow division. That we’ll forever be tied together, victorious. Let the globe, if nothing else, say this is true: We lay down our arms so we can reach out our arms to one another. We close the divide because we know, to put our future first, we must first put our differences aside. We lift our gazes not to what stands between us, but what stands before us. We are striving to forge our union with purpose. We’ve learned that quiet isn’t always peace,Īnd the norms and notions of what “just” is isn’t always justice.Īnd yes, we are far from polished, far from pristine,īut that doesn’t mean we are striving to form a union that is perfect. history.īelow are some of the powerful quotes from Amanda Gorman’s poem: The National Youth Poet Laureate made history as the youngest inaugural poet in the U.S. Poet Amanda Gorman delivered a remarkable speech performance of her poem “The Hill We Climb” during the Inauguration Ceremony of President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, January 20, 2021.

I wouldn’t even know what to do with a property the size of Oliver’s home. I could hardly keep my small apartment clean for a day. I wondered how many people it took to keep a house that size up to par. They were trimming the bushes that, to me, already looked perfect and watering the fully blossomed flowers that were vibrant shades of yellows and reds. That morning, a team of people was doing yard work to keep the property in top-notch shape. It was even more beautiful than I remembered.

The book begins shortly after the death of Franklin Roosevelt with Hick anxiously awaiting a visit from Eleanor after years of being apart. White Houses is written in first person narrative from the perspective of Hick and focuses on several time periods during her relationship with Eleanor. In fact, I knew Franklin Roosevelt had polio and was married to Eleanor and that was the extent of my knowledge. The thing that appealed to me about White Houses was how little I know about this period in American history. White Houses tells the story of the secret and enduring love between Eleanor and Hick. In 1933, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt moved into The White House and with them moved Lorena Hickock otherwise known as Hick. White Houses by Amy Bloom made it onto our list of New Books to Look Out For in May 2018prior to me reading it because I had heard good things about it.
