Yesterday, thankfully, the inbox was way down.<\/p>\n
Oddly, since I normally prefer reading to videos, I think I’d rather listen to Heather Cox Richardson<\/a> than read her letters\/ Even though she says “um” a lot. I think part of that is her enthusiasm. Even when she has warnings to give, it can feel like she’s giving a pep talk. I listened to all 41 \u00bd minutes\u00a0 of this one, digressions, and ums, and all, and there was little in it that I hadn’t heard or read elsewhere, but I still felt enlightened afterwards. You may feel differently, but here’s the link if you want to try. (If you don’t, ignore it.)<\/p>\n I am absolutely in agreement with Robert Reich<\/a> here. Eternal vigilance is the price, not only of freedom, but of equity. If they distort it one way, the only way we can restore it is to distort it ourselves. We didn’t get that during reconstruction (any of the reconstructions) – but we need to learn it now.<\/p>\n
