Thought of the Day: “Fists in the Air”
"Personally, we’ve had enough of the boogeyman fright tales, the reports of how bad everything is. With all due respect to those fine muckrackers whose work remains so important: we know already. Let’s stop telling their story–the stories of abuse and corruption and injustice–and start writing our own, the stories that carry the pulse of struggle and the quick heartbeat of triumph over adversity. Enough with the hand-wringing. It’s time for fists in the air"
