I just got confirmation that National History Day, a program that does more to ignite K-12 students' love of history, learning, and yes, even the United States than anything else I've ever seen, had all its funding cut yesterday by the DOGE-axe at the NEH - including for this year's ongoing contest.

Emancipation statue, with Abraham Lincoln and Archer Alexander. Alexander escaped enslavement and warned the Union that his enslaver planned to destroy an important bridge.
Happy birthday, #AbeLincoln! (Did you know the man in the Emancipation statue, Archer Alexander, was Muhammed Ali's great-great-great grandfather? Also, he warned the Union Army that his enslaver planned to destroy an important bridge.)
That was a great research paper!

Wonder from whence my love of Freedom sprung, Whence flow these wishes for the common good, By feeling hearts alone best understood, I, young in life, by seeming cruel fate Was snatchβd from Africβs fancyβd happy seat: What pangs excruciating must molest, What sorrows labour in my parentβs breast? Steelβd was that soul and by no misery movβd That from a father seizβd his babe belovβd: Such, such my case. And can I then but pray Others may never feel tyrannic sway?
