Sunday Morning Reading

Tough times. Tough thoughts.

The world changed last night in ways we can’t comprehend this morning after the Trump Regime did indeed launch anticipated bombing attacks on Iran. Or maybe it’s too easy to comprehend, yet ignore, the why of it all too well. So it’s tough to put this week’s Sunday Morning Reading column together. I had a number of links to share on my usual topics of interest that I’ll save for another day. Instead I’ll just link to three posts that speak to the moment.

Graham Peebles asks Is This What Collapse Looks Like? That we have to ask the question…

Writing about last week’s horrendous assassination of Melissa Hortman and the attempted assassination of John Hoffman, Sheririlyn Ifill says “people of character stand up” in her piece When Small Men and Women Rule. On so many fronts, it’s time for some standing up.
