To my progressives, liberals, radicals, and people seeking change, a love note: Why must we continue to look to other people/groups to make the changes we want to see happen? We look to our political party, or campaigns with people to “champion” issues we find important, or Nonprofits dedicated to social justice. All of these […]

Since Occupy Honolulu began I have been ignoring this blog, and have spent far less time on the computer in general.
