  • 1969 A Vortex of Change

    The American Dream for many became the American Nightmare. Growing up many of us searched for that Norman Rockwell moment. For many of us it never happened. And for all too many, they were never even depicted in that Norman Rockwell image. The 1950’s are romanticized as a time when one paycheck paid for the house, family and white picket fence. What is left out of the equation is the formula only worked if you were a white straight male. Marginalized people stayed hidden or under the radar. Things started to change in the 1960’s. Culminating in 1969, a year of change.

  • Death of American Entrepreneurialism

    For the larger part of our history,“the American Dream” was to start a small local business, something like a bakery, grocery store, cleaners, clothing store/tailors, hotel, restaurant, hardware store, theater, gift store, travel agency, etc., and then not only run it for the rest of your life but make it profitable, create well paying local employment and be able to pass it along to your children and grandchildren. What happened to this American formula?

  • Gaslighting: Twisted Truth

    Gaslighting is usually thought of at the personal level—where one person forces another to question their reality. It is an effective technique to place the gaslighter in a position of power. Exactly the same thing takes place at a cultural level.

  • Alan Turing: Father of Computers and Artificial Intelligence
    Today,  we honor Alan Turing, who was born in 1912 in the United Kingdom and changed the 20th century on several levels. He is most known for cracking the Nazi Enigma code in WWII, hastening the end of the war. He is also called the father of computer science.
    He was also a gay man living at a time when being gay was severely punished.  Educated at Princeton University and King's College at Cambridge, he most likely saved 20 million lives yet sadly lost his life to 'suicide' after being chemically castrated.
