Please Read This From Gloria:
On January 21st, I will be deleting all my FB accounts. This includes all Cervena Barva press pages and groups, Read America Read, The First & Last Word Poetry Series, All my book pages etc…
FB will not correct my issues and I am tired of having to go to the Maruska page to post on my regular page. It will not let me do things I use to. I have had my page since 2009!!!
This hurts to do this. I am just so sick of FB crap. So I am starting over.
I hope as FB friends you can find me. With all the hacks I do not know who is real with friend requests so I will send you one. I will take pictures of the names. I will use Gloria Mindock but with an initial in the middle. I hope FB will give me no trouble joining again.
I am so sad to lose all that I built up. I will start the groups over but have only one Cervena group page. I am not doing a press page or a reading series page again. Everything will be in one place. Read America Read events will be posted on the Cervena Group page. I will have rejoin groups I belong to also.
I look forward to starting over. If I have any trouble my sister Kellis Anna will post something. I also will ask a few friends to help too just in case. If worse comes to worse, maybe I will have to pick a new name. Haha!!! I am sorry for the inconvenience of all this. Life is life and sometimes you have to just deal with things. It could be worse so onward.
Thanks,
Gloria

I don’t know whether this is real, but a friend posted it and I’m doing the same:

Big day tomorrow I It’s official. Signed at 8:10am. It was even on TV. Mine really turned blue. Don't forget that tomorrow starts the new Facebook rule (aka... new name, META) where they can use your photos. Don't forget the deadline is today!!!
Hold your finger anywhere in this message and “copy” will appear. Click “copy”. Then go to your page, create a new post and place your finger anywhere in the empty field. “Paste” will appear and click Paste.
This will bypass the system….
He who does nothing consents
According to the show 60 Minutes:
Just in case you missed it: a lawyer advised us to post this. The violation of privacy can be punished by law NOTE: Facebook Meta is now a public entity. Every member must post a note like this. If you do not publish a statement at least once, it will be technically understood that you are allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in your profile status updates.
I HEREBY DECLARE THAT I DO NOT GIVE MY PERMISSION FOR FACEBOOK OR META TO USE ANY OF MY PERSONAL DATA. I do not give consent!
