Every time I step away from blogging or sending a tweet or two the dang interface changes!! Why can't things just remain as they are? I don't care that much for blogging or tweeting. It's time consuming and I'd much rather cut blocks. However, I've learned that I have to (at least) have a working knowledge of both. If not, I'm going to be left behind. Hey, that's the name of a movie, isn't it? Left behind. Anyway, here I sit looking at the new (to me) BLOGGER Post page. Mumble. Mumble.
Anyway, I've assembled a few of the cut linoleum blocks on the floor and I've taken photos. Do you recognize any of the civil rights activists? If I count the 16th Street Baptist Church marquee I have a total of 32 blocks. Here it is -the iconic 16th Street Baptist Church sign. The newsprint proof is positioned on top of the lino block.Labels: 16th Street Baptist Church sign, 1963 Birmingham, civil rights movement, holding the line, linoleum prints
