Carly Fiorina Just Burst Into Song and It Was the Weirdest Thing I've Ever Seen April 27, 2016
There we were, as a nation, watching Sen. Ted Cruz attempt to gin up some momentum by announcing Carly Fiorina as his vice presidential running mate, Wednesday afternoon. I was a bit bored. Then this happened, and oh, how I screamed with my mouth and with my keyboard: Here is the full video for your enjoyment—and […]

This Powerful Video Shows Just How Violent Online Harassment Is for Women in Sports April 26, 2016
Part of the unstated job description for a woman in sports seems to involve dealing with serious forms of online abuse—harassment that often extends well beyond the innocuous jab and into violent, misogynistic threats. It's a well-documented problem, but that doesn't matter. It's a near daily reality for far too many women working in sports. […]

Lin-Manuel Miranda Raps a Powerful Plea to Save Puerto Rico From Its Debt Crisis April 25, 2016
On Sunday, John Oliver focused his attention on Puerto Rico's paralyzing debt crisis and the fast-approaching May 1 deadline looming over the island to repay $72 billion—an amount the island's governor announced last June could not be repaid and was therefore crippling Puerto Rico's economy. The ongoing crisis has affected many of Puerto Rico's 3.5 […]

I post this here because this narration reminds me of James Baldwin, whose writing many feminist found some experiential commonality (see Dworkin). It is really about male privilege and the tribalism that divides and traumatizes us -- through what greatly can be called the patriarchal habituation (addictive) process as described by Anne Schaef and many others. Misogyny (patriarchy), as he describes racism, functions in the same manner. I do not have time to say much more at this moment. Obama is a great writer. I can see why some of my literary friends who read his books early on were smitten by him. You can see where his remarkable diplomacy evolved. https://www.youtube.com/embed/NBzDb8UB8yA

America could be on the verge of a huge shift to the left — here’s what you can expect February 23, 2020
A new socialist movement is cohering in the US, thanks in large part to the popular class politics of Bernie Sanders.
