Steve Goodman was a very good man
Basically, Steve was exactly who he appeared to be: an ambitious, well-adjusted man from a loving, middle-class Jewish home in the Chicago suburbs, whose life and talent were directed by the physical pain and time constraints of a fatal disease which he kept at bay, at times, seemingly by willpower alone . . . Steve wanted to live as normal a life as possible, only he had to live it as fast as he could . . . He extracted meaning from the mundane.

We must support revolutionary imperatives for peace, justice and freedom in France, America, Africa and every continent where this becomes necessary. Exporting knowledge, technology and peace instead of terror, munitions and war is investment in a sustainable future,. This reaps untold dividends for generations to come.

Celebrate Indigenous Peoples Day ~OO~
Evidently Biden wants to have his cake and eat it too. Columbus Day is over. This was never “Italian Americans’ day.” Colonialism has never been celebrated in hundreds of indigenous nations…
