“I want to create a rapid response team, right around the world, perhaps starting originally with our partners, similar to the one we have in the United Nations whereby, where there's a problem in our society which demands a compassionate response, an educated, informed, not just a splurgy emotional thing, but an informed compassionate response that puts yourself in the position of the other and sees all sides of the problem, not just your own, there'll be somebody poised in each society who can write to the media, write an op-ed piece, to go on TV or radio.” WorldWantWritingProblemNationsSidesUnitedPiecesTeamMediaPositionEmotionalTvsGoes OnDemandResponseStartingRadioPartnersEducatedAround The WorldOur SocietyCompassionateUnited NationsRapidsEmotional Things Author:Karen Armstrong
“One of the problems with the media covering this place is that there are stereotypes of news, one of which is "war rages" and the other is "peace dawns." And there isn't much in between. When I talk to foreign journalists, often they are gritting their teeth because they've been asked for a piece about how shops are reopening and restaurants are reopening and so forth - happy pieces. And it just ain't so.” WarProblemPiecesMediaNewsRageTeethJournalistDawnRestaurantsShopsStereotypeCovering Author:Patrick Cockburn
“Anarchism means all sort of things to different people but the traditional anarchists' movements assumed that there'd be a highly organized society, just one organized from below with direct participation and so on.

“What I've started to realize is that social media is not just technology - it's become its own entity, full of energy waves.

“I work at a record label where I have archives. These things [memorabilia] occurred and are important to somebody, and they're important to me. I find the record industry largely repellent. This music, the Teen Idles, all of that stuff, is important to me. I don't have lawyers, an agent or a manager. However I find the music industry largely repellent. I just make records because that's what I love to do. So I think that era, those pieces of media, I keep in my collection.” ThinkingImportantStuffRecordsPiecesMediaIndustryLawyerAgentsManagersLabelsErasCollectionsMusic IndustryArchivesRecord Labels Author:Ian MacKaye
