This week I have a lot of LGBTQ+ news articles, climate change, racism and politics for you. Then my Op ed about climate abuse and a story from Jack Finn about the planet fighting back against man. A Shadow Upon the Shore

This week's episode is about the younger generations and exhorting them to get out an make the changes needed to bring the world back into balance. Most especially here in the U.S. Get out and vote like your lives depend on it, because it actually does now.

This weeks episode is focused on Pride month with quite a few articles about their struggles in current society, I also included several climate change articles from the news feeds and some activist bloggers. I also have one blog piece on racism I found that I felt I should share since Juneteenth is coming up. The Op ed this week is about human diversity and why we need to stop the tibnal isolation and become the tribe of man instead of tribes of national borders and flags. I also read an article of the same theme.

Today's episode has my handpicked news articles from around the world and this weeks OPED on the state of education and racism as it applies to students in the United States.

This is my first episode on RSS.com. Please feel free to enjoy any past episisode that were migrated over from Substack.com. Another weeks worth of news articles about the culture wars, climate and environmental issues, a couple of anthropology articles and a little light humor. And my OPED about a correlation between low quality education and narrow mindeness vs mass shooters and extreme tribal legislators.
