there has to be an outside force fighting for freedom, and of course we have cross-grains with both the American Domestic Naz! Regime, as well as the largely allied western pro genocide campaigns. i fear the world may be too big of a mess to save us and we cannot and will not save ourselves. What will happen? I havent a clue, but if people think we are simply going to vote them out in 26 and 28, they are dreaming.

so much of American business and academia have decided to "work with the Naz!s" reminds me of so much of what happened in Germany those long years ago. The thing i cant sort out is how this one ends. last time it took a world war with allies throwing lots of bullets and bodies into the fray. who will be the allies this time? everything i can read says resistance fighters, while useful, cannot overthrow the regime from within.

It isn’t!

Fulfilling our responsibility to feed, clothe, and shelter everyone
is a public health issue,
is a public safety issue,
is an economic productivity issue,
an investment in the very future of our society,
and it is the moral thing to do.

It is not and should never be considered charity!

Someone was discussing how the early Black Panthers created a free breakfast program that was latter co-opted by local govts and called charity.

And…we need to get over the idea that feeding hungry people, and doubly so hungry children is charity.The govt has a responsibility to feed, clothe, and shelter the weakest in our society. When we build a road or a fire house, we don’t call it charity. Neither should we call our basic responsibility to the marginalized members of society charity.

On the Rise

at the edge of town
sits a tiny house four rooms
neat and square

Out on the gallery sits
blind uncle John shooting crows
by sound off the limbs of pecan trees
in his front yard.

A little coffee, a little whiskey,
he don’t like the booze
but takes it as medicine to steady his hand,

the coffee he loves as much
as he hates the crow.

The great thing about the free online courses if you can gain knowledge from anywhere in the world with internet. Our course, ModPo.org, has 90,000 students and yet manages to feel very close and intimate.

Sadly, some universities do not treat their free course, or even some paying courses with the care and intensity we have at ModPo.

In response to a LinkedIn post regarding some online courses offered by a particular school, i posted:

Actually, most Ivy League and other prestigious colleges offer free online courses thru Edx and Coursera. I prefer Coursera. There are hundreds of such courses.

In fact, if you are in the states, and your family income is under $200K, and you make the grade, you can probably attend any of the Ivies, MIT, Stanford and several other premier universities at no cost to you.

On the anniversary week of the 109th year of James Connolly‘s murder by the British Army, I am beginning to wonder if he might have held some of the answers to my question about what could and maybe what must follow late stage capitalism.

If any of you have a good understanding of the man, I would love to hear your thoughts.

Why does the ignorance continue? I still see posts about how “kids don’t read anymore”
What they don’t do is waste hours per day watching TV! Reading is up, book sales are at an all time record, and yes young people are doing a fair share of it. Young people are so much more brilliant than my generation (boomers) or the next or even the next, each generation is getting so much smarter. Go to a college classroom, go to an elementary classroom. You will be amazed!

Gross, evil, horrible, and yes, very much INHUMANE! of course as it is a black woman, none of us can act too shocked. what has white law and white medicine not conspired to do against women, black folks and most especially black women since "blackness" was created a few hundred years ago. there is a certain lack of shame that is a key ingredient to whiteness. I seem to not have that part of my whiteness in tact, as this bothers me a great deal. i wish i had an option to do something meaningful.

Just had a thought. Would love feedback. As you know, I am in the process of making hand painted greeting cards, post cards and maybe even book marks. So, the greeting cards are 8.5” x 11”, my chapbooks are either 8x10 folded, or 8.5x11. Who would want a hand painted cover? They would each be unique and would have no writing on the cover, which might be confusing….
