"[Georgia]...has hurt every American adopted since the beginning of the falsification of adoptees' birth certificates. She's hurt their birth parents. And she continues to hurt most of the 6 million adoptees and approximately 12 million birth parents alive today."

The first page in the first chapter and I'm already annoyed.

"I wish I could just get my hair cut short and be done with it! It takes way too much time to have to fiddle with it!" Wtf?

Li is 20% done with The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America’s Shining Women
"The doctor’s standpoint may in part have been due to the discipline in which he worked: industrial hygiene...To offend such a prestigious institution as USRC would not be wise. As one industrial physician put it: “Are we in industry to help carry out some soft, silly, social plan? Are we in industry to buy the goodwill of the employees? No. We are in industry because it is good business.”"

"...even in 1924, commercial firms contributed money for special projects. To offend such a prestigious institution as USRC would not be wise. As one industrial physician put it: “Are we in industry to help carry out some soft, silly, social plan? Are we in industry to buy the goodwill of the employees? No. We are in industry because it is good business.”"

In the Katzenbach hearing, McCarthy heard something terrifyingly stirring - genuine tyranny in America, Now he heard something else - a roar against tyranny. That roar came straight out of the heart and soul of the American people, the the hope and inspiration it gave McCarthy changed him.

"The media saw (Johnson's) lifted shirt as the crudest moment in the modern presidency. It would not be outdone until Donald Trump moved into the White House." ...I don't like Trump AT ALL, but are we completely ignoring Clinton's very existence, now?

"The European papers played up the lack of warning Dillinger was given before being shot in the back. In Germany a Nazi newspaper used this as ammunition for a broadside against America. "Is a cop calling a man by his first name before shooting him down a sufficient trial?... Does a country in which this happens still deserve the name of a country of law and order?"

"Fans had been getting slaughtered by high-speed racing machines ever since those machines had been invented. As early as 1911, a race car had plunged into a race crowd at Syracuse, NY, killing eleven."
