Grace Linn’s husband was killed while fighting nazis in WWII. She’s a centurion who has witnessed the rise of fascism first hand.
Recently she took on a school board in Florida against their book bans. She made a quilt in protest and reminded people where book bans lead:
“Banning books and burning books are the same. Both are done for the same reason: fear of knowledge.”
