Six N.Y. Senators Don Hoodies for Trayvon Martin — Daily Intel.

In Albany yesterday, the six hooded lawmakers read off a list of black men killed by New York police, tracing responsibility back to Rudy Giuliani. “It is horrific what happened to Trayvon,” Adams added. “But it happens every day in the city of New York.”

The Party of Yesterday

I was watching a West Wing Marathon and it was funny to see the issues they were dealing with in the series four years ago, and what’s being leveled against Obama.

Cold War is over, we won, but we are still worried about socialists. Hilarious. Then I read this Op-Ed. Nice way to keep looking back. Election 2008

Question on Tikkun Olam

What is the Muslim equivalent? I know we have one, it’s embedded in our conception of khalifa. But do we have something as pithy? I ask, because now must repair. Now we must heal. The world is un-wrought, it is distraught, it is with anger fraught.
