Work 4 Peace,Hold All Life Sacred,Eliminate Violence! I am on my mobile version of the door-to-door, going town-to-town holding readings/gatherings/discussions of my book "But What Can I Do?" This is my often neglected blog mostly about my travels since 9/11 as I engage in dialogue and actions. It is steaming with my opinions, insights, analyses toward that end of holding all life sacred, dismantling the empire and eliminating violence while creating the society we want ALL to thrive in

A few responses..

I got a late start this morning, mostly due to the cold but also looking working out and finding a place to charge my battery. My solar has issues and I’d have to pay to camp and plug in my electrical system, which I don’t want to do – that good ole budget thang.

I didn’t make it half-way through Texas without the other good ole white boys in white pickup trucks pulling in front of me and letting go of thick black smoke. Twice.

Another pickup, white again with two white boys, almost catapulted out their respective side windows to make sure I saw their middle fingers jabbing at me and my truck.

They had to suddenly stop, as we ran into traffic, so I almost got to catch up with them but they weaved in and out of almost stationary lanes to work their way ahead.

Hmmm

I also received one blatant heart from a Black male driver who took his hands off the wheel while passing me at his exit to smile broadly making the heart in both hands.

Another Black family honked loudly, fists raised, smiling broadly as they passed me.

And yet another car with a very elderly Black womon passenger raised a shaky hand to wave at me, smiling broadly, as the driver probably her daughter also smiled and honked.

Not so many responses in such a big state.
