Watched a comedy special on Netflix the other night featuring Tig Notaro: “Happy to Be Here”. The routine ends with a bit of a tease based on whether or not the Indigo Girls are there off-stage to perform at the end of the show. And that’s why today I’m featuring a version of their Shame On You.
Since our platform is about expressing ideas and ideals instead of cash flow, clicks, or fundraising, we have the freedom to include a wide range of topics and formats that might not work elsewhere. We don’t need or want paid content, promotional materials, or story lines designed to please donors.
So the idea here is to present videos one or more of the editors feel speaks to them. Sometimes it will be news. Sometimes it will be history. And a lot of the time it will be culture. You can not and should not separate these things: it is diversity and intersectionality that makes our movement strong.
