Book meme mama

I've been tagged, not in the recess playground manner, nor in a Banksy work. Thank you Brandon for trying to get me to post more often, but your ploy won't work! Except for right now. Here's how this shet is going down: a) grab the nearest book of one hundred and twenty-three pages or more, b) turn to page one hundred and twenty-three, c) find the first five sentences, d) post the next three sentences, and e) tag five people. In the face.

We had hundreds of invitations that the limited time did not allow us to accept. We were looked upon as brothers, with the color of our skins as something of an asset. But the strongest bond of fraternity was the common cause of minority and colonial peoples in America, Africa, and Asia struggling to throw off racism and imperialism.

This is from Martin Luther King Junior's autobiography, describing his pilgrimage to India. I've noted this before, but he was a huge fan of Ghandi. I actually haven't gotten this far in the book, so it totally ruined that part of the story for me. Not really.

I actually haven't been reading that much lately. My schedule isn't that conducive to having a whole lot of free time. And the free time that is to be had is spent doing very, very little. I'm not entirely sure how it's possible to do so little.

I was supposed to tag five people, but I'm not going to, because if you don't want to do it, I'm not going to make you. But if you want to, please pass along this "book meme" and think of me. Coming soon: thoughts on the future of the EHBS as inspired by past, present and non members. you have my love.
