“And what about us? We are failing the test of our humanity. Too many media, governments, companies, universities, too many guilty consciences and dirty hands. This genocide bears our fingerprints. It’s under our eyes. Denying it today means being ignorant, or complicit.” — Francesca Albanese

“In The revolution will not be televised, we were saying…the first change that takes place is in your mind. You have to change your mind before you change the way you live and the way you move…. I’m on the wrong page, or I’m on the right page but on the wrong note. . . ” - Gil Scott-Heron.

These are some very dark times in the U.S. and the world - but we have to celebrate the hard won victories and keep working for a better future together! Thanks to @betterpress_lab and especially to the @risdglobal students for putting up with your very frantic and crazy professor!
