Remember this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause.

It's been such a lovely scholar visit to St. Thomas University. We've used Theatre of the Oppressed to explore how journalists might find their way into solidarity with communities. I've met amazing, caring people and eaten delicious, yummy pizza.
