"textContent": "Banger of a day in the weather department. Walking through Northside I paused at this mural by Brandon Hawkins. Titled Standing on the Shoulders of Giants, the artwork features literary figures Sandra Cisneros, Amanda Gorman, James Baldwin, Mary Oliver, Paul Laurence Dunbar, Nikki Giovanni, and Joy Harjo. I was happy to note while collecting links that each living artist had an active personal website — minimizing social media is a favorite pastime. I was also reminded that this mural is the location of WordPlay and I needed to update the Northside Map (done). 🎨 More about the folks behind the mural",
