Love this quote and the photo, but the quote is from like 2012 and the photo is from like the 60s. I'd prefer if the photo was more recent (or at least not black and white) so we don't perpetuate the myth that all of the great socialist thinkers are from long ago in our past. Le Guin said this in front of Amazon executives and I think it minimizes the impact to pair it with such an old photo.

Oh wow, yeah it totally does. I thought Le Guin died in like the 80s
