“We Americans spout bromides about freedom. Democracy campaigners in the Middle...”

This is hands down my favorite op-ed this weekend.

“I know it’s been a long week here; some of you have been here from the beginning...”

– In Which We Teach You How To Be A Woman In Any Boys’ Club - Home - This Recording
