Thank you for your thoughtful reflections on some of my comments. Indeed this is the essence of communication at its best - that though we may be separated in time and space and even life experiences and generational age, we can engage in sharing analysis that supports our quest to overcome oppressive forces.

To me, this is such a delightful change from so many articles that are focussed on 'generating content to increase income/followers'.

In contrast you wish to deepen the dialogue to include more voices.

Bravo!

I think this begins to answer the question you have raised, but let me respond in more depth in an article, as you have done.

Thank you - both for hearing me and for responding in such an affirming way that encourages further dialogue and analysis from those of us who are concerned about human liberation from the oppressive Western Empire that poses so hypocritically as being for human rights and democracy at the very. same time as it bombs whole regions around the world, and assassinates leaders of integrity.
