Monday, Monday: My Visit to an AME Church, BLM protestors arrested in my hometown & Who is Hillary Clinton?

Forgive me everyone for posting video today rather than writing a blog post. It's be been a y busy and exhausting weekend for me the work I'm doing for The People's Convention, now less than two weeks away. So, in lieu of an essay, here is my latest, "Monday, Monday: My visit to an AME Church, BLM arrests in my hometown & Who is Hillary Clinton."

your video (so far), and your post-modern background. I'm not so sure about your haircut :=)) For some reason I can only see the first minute, both here at caucus and at you tube directly. After the first minute all I get is an un-endlesslingly downloading video.

Reinserted the link.

Try it now and private message me if not working. I guess my only option at that point is to talk to YouTube help, if they have such a thing.

I don't think my inability is similar to what this link reports since I don't have any other problems with you tube, in general. I'll let you know if I discover anything. Thank you for your effort.

Hi,

There is only one you tube video that won't download among all others I've tried.

Can you help me to download this video?

Thank you

Don't go to America

Three countries have warned their citizens to stay on guard when visiting U.S. cities rocked by sometimes violent protests that erupted after a string of police shootings of black Americans.

The United States regularly issues travel warnings urging Americans to either avoid or exercise caution in countries marred by violence or political instability.

Now America is the focus of concern by foreign governments in the Middle East and Caribbean as protesters marched in U.S. cities throughout the weekend after police killed black men in Louisiana and Minnesota.

like NZ (74% European), I as an American citizen am only warned of trouble in predominantly POC countries.

Interesting about hrc, but not surprising. She does not want to accept the fact she's human and humans have failings, yet manage to eek out a life. She's the cat with nine lives who keeps on shitting and covering it up over and over again.

It must be tiring to be hrc.

my husband and I attended a funeral for our next door neighbor who was black. She was a member of the most prominent black church in town. We both felt that we should attend her funeral as we both really liked her and were truly saddened when she unexpectedly passed away.

It never occurred to me that we might be the only white people in attendance since she was from a very prominent family. It was only after my husband mentioned it to me during the service did I even realize that we were the only white people there. What impressed me was both the joy and fervor of the ministers and the congregation during the service. Everyone there was very kind and welcoming. I actually felt more at home and welcome there than I ever did in any mainstream white church.

A truth of the nuclear age/climate change: we can no longer have endless war and survive on this planet. Oh sh*t.
