I was listening again to the prescient analysis by Prof Patricia Williams of race in the U.S, and Donald Trump's use of rhetoric and images. See my 2020 interview of her for Countersign: countersignisapodcast.com/podcasts/cul...

I’ve just visited Veraibari village (pop. 1000), Kikori River, Papua New Guinea, with Pacific lawyers preparing submissions to ICJ Advisory Op on Climate.
This tattered house shows the force of climate devastation.
