Becauseβ¦! I continue write!
Words dictate, dedicate,
Where and when,
Tears stillborn,
May unleash,
Freedomβs spring

I wish to share a luminous interview recently listened to, and notwithstanding, some (short!) documentaries, I enjoyed watching.
Tonight I share all that educational content first, foremost, before I break (as I like) song and dance, sprinkled create, magic, pixie dust.

The Information
The Interview
π₯ Is this the end of the American Empire? | Chris Hedges | Real Talk
Middle East Eye | Aug 5, 2024
βI mean we have one party, it's the corporate party and you get to choose between the more stayed and controlled figure of an Obama or a Biden or a Harris, or you get the cult leader demagogue proto-fascist Trump. Now the capitalist class would prefer the more measured and somber tones of the Democrats but they can live with Trump.β
The Documentary
I overlay this with a video I feel perfectly woven in underlying tentacle thought.
π₯ The End of Fear | Apocalypse Maybe: E2 | Featured Documentary
Al Jazeera English | Feb 7, 2024
In part 2 of our Apocalypse Maybe series, βEnd of Fearβ, people raised with a belief in an impending apocalypse look back on their upbringing, and find some parallels in today's increasingly unstable world. Acclaimed author and professor Jerald Walker shares the story told in his 2016 autobiography, βThe World in Flames: A Black Boyhood in a White Supremacist Doomsday Cultβ, while writer and PR professional Fleur Brown connects past fears with current day. Some threads of apocalyptic beliefs are then unpicked with academic insight by retired Professor of Christian Origins and Ancient Judaism at the University of North Carolina, James Tabor. He reassures viewers that such prophecies, past and present, have a 100% failure rate.
The Documentary (contβd)
Below are remaining 3 episodes of series for those interested and/or stimulated (they average under 30 minutes, watch time each)
The interview at second half of episode one hurt my heart for our human past. Fast forward today, we continue fail, our human-kind.

The Creative
in your estimation, whatβs the fixation?
distillation, your concentration?
hold duration? full attention?
my intention, some frustration,
heads down, in vocation,
truncation, sedation,
translation..
no.. sensation,
dictation, citation, quotation,
what more do you need, world?
to stand right, and do just?

"do you not see? beyond the script?"
Those words really struck me, Najwan.
If genocide hasn't broken the spell so many are under, what on earth will?
Feels like we're living in a bad dream, wanting to wake up to a sane and just world. The madness just goes on and on. Doomsday. Nuclear Threat. End of the World.
But Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing...
"Becauseβ¦! I continue write!"
We'll continue to fight.
and
"Tears stillborn,
May unleash,
Freedomβs spring"
Thank you Najwan.......
