Black Friday & The Week after.....
I am sitting here by the woodstove, catching myself up on some of the news around the world and thinking, and just feel the need to, ya know... post a blog, i guess. On Black Friday aka Buy-Nothing Day, we saw the death of a temporary Wal-Mart employee trampled by crazed shoppers. Then a week later, a factory is occupied by workers in Chicago who refuse to leave until they are paid what they are owed by the company after Bank of America corporation cut off the company's line of credit. Then on Saturday a 16 year-old anarchist boy is shot dead by police in Greece sparking riots in the streets of athens, global outrage and solidarity events across Europe.
