Answer:  “ROOT–TEENS“

(Well, they are teens, and they are rooting!  I’m guessing this might have been a difficult solve for some of you.  I’m a jumble rat, so it didn’t take me very long.  But, the answer was no gimme, by any standard.  There were no new clue words, but three of the jumbles were new.  They have used “menvo” before.  The answer letter layout was a great jumble, that gave nothing away.  And, the cartoon was cute, and relevant, but didn’t make the answer too obvious.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  It’s funny how one of the the items in Today in History ties in to today’s Google art/theme.  156 years ago, Charles Darwin published “On the Origin of Species” (TiH), and it’s the 41st anniversary of the discovery of Lucy (Google).  I thought it was interesting.   —   YUR

“Let us put our minds together and see what life we can make for our children.”   —   Sitting Bull

(And, for how many years were our history books, and popular culture, referring to him as a “savage”???  Oh, how our leaders love to demonize those who look and live differently than “us”.  Governments – and their mouthpiece, the corporate media – need to provide us with a bad guy . . . a boogieman . . . to rally support for their . . . purposes.  We just need to be smart enough to see this in the present, and not have to wait until the “official” narrative is rectified.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
