History, despite its wrenching pain,
Cannot be unlived, and if faced with courage,
Need not be lived again.
Maya Angelou, The Pulse of Morning
Everyday actions, experiences, and reactions provide the often unrecorded context to momentous historical events.
How have your days unfolded as protests swept across the world?
