'In order to change, you have to move- your soul has to move...I don't think there is a color for your soul'- Young person from film: American Textures (2015)
15,000 nurses in Minnesota walked off the job to protest understaffing and overwork.
This is the largest strike of private-sector nurses in U.S. history and it should be one of the biggest stories in the country.
The public mourning during 9/11 is even more curious after the last few years where thousands of people died each day and instead of that being a great tragedy as well, there were demands to go back to work and to learn to live with that level of death.
All this talk about dignity & restraint when describing Queen Elizabeth is nauseating.
The dignity & restraint of the colonizer can never match that of the colonized.
