FYI, I have finally published the actual source of my 2014 essay "Whither Original Thought" to my web site. It links to the audio from your radio show a month ago when I had read it aloud for the first time.

nhplace.comWhither Original Thought by Kent M PitmanA 2014 essay, with accompanying audio, reflecting upon the cultural legitimacy of original thought.

Most people are not rich and most people are not racists. They're a minority and represent their respective groups. How come that they make the rules, create consent and force their ideologies onto the masses? Those two minorities are the biggest danger for our society and surely support its' downfall. It's either the majority's ignorance/stupidity/laziness and/or their not knowing the power of numbers.

Anyways, back to my dinner.

I haven't done a #FollowFriday list in a while. Here are some of my favorite #HumanRights accounts (in alphabetical order):
