Actually, I hope that he ends up being just a particularly annoying person at a party where I’m not going to stay long, but right now, he is REALLY not my friend.

Mental health parity–let your voice be heard

I know that I don’t talk about this issue as much as I talk about all of the other things I like to rant and rave about, but this is something that really is so important to me . . . maybe someday I’ll blog my own personal story of what happens when you don’t have mental health coverage, but for today, please just go here and send an e-mail to your state representative.
thanks.

To those who say that Jena isn’t about race

I was struck by how these wise words from W.E.B. Du Bois’ The Souls of Black Folk are still so applicable today: (emphasis added)
It was a phase of this problem that caused the Civil War; and however much they who marched South and North in 1861 may have fixed on the technical points, of union and local autonomy as a shibboleth, all nevertheless knew, as we know, that the question of Negro slavery was the real cause of the conflict. Curious it was, too, how this deeper question ever forced itself to the surface despite effort and disclaimer. No sooner had Northern armies touched Southern soil than this old question, newly guised, sprang from the earth,–What shall be done with Negroes?
