BLM was a movie too i think. definitely worth a pick-up, and a timely reminder of how bad it can really get if we let things get out of hand.<br /><br />@robb: kia ora! i do not know if racism in an institutionalised sense exists much anymore, but the attitudes are definitely there. i have even found myself to be guilty of racilly bigoted attitudes i accuse others of. this came as a hard reminder.feddabonnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365326300429832990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26094423.post-85734489794646505932010-06-07T18:02:07.203+12:002010-06-07T18:02:07.203+12:00Kia ora feddabonn,

It really did open my eyes and made me think, shook me by the shoulders real hard. Someone I know tld me parts of it are now a bit dated, but when I last read it I found it as fresh, relevant and hard hitting as ever. Racism and hatred do not get old. Kia kaha.<br />Cheers,<br />RobbRuahineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398484733805119294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26094423.post-67241979907528184492010-06-04T19:55:54.292+12:002010-06-04T19:55:54.292+12:00Agree with Calliopia, you seem to have a perfect j...Agree with Calliopia, you seem to have a perfect job. Why, it might not even feel like work at all.<br />I think I've heard of Black Like Me, maybe read a review or seen the book, will add it to my ever growing list of Books to buy/read.Aduhi Chawngthuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09354958246245503600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26094423.post-38898149243328945252010-06-04T08:35:45.869+12:002010-06-04T08:35:45.869+12:00reading's mostly on the bus to and from work, ...reading's mostly on the bus to and from work, and the watchings our standard after dinner activity, lol.feddabonnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365326300429832990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26094423.post-55839076244649456832010-06-04T04:37:30.632+12:002010-06-04T04:37:30.632+12:00wow, you manage to do so much interesting reading?...wow, you manage to do so much interesting reading?Malsawmi Jacobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16398649072289630943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26094423.post-31782496295440502512010-06-03T16:56:11.899+12:002010-06-03T16:56:11.899+12:00lol. i do all this on my days off! i work saturday...lol. i do all this on my days off! i work saturday to monday, and the *only time one gets to sit down is during official breaks. add 1 hour bus rides to and from work...you still want it? lol. and i never did get what shakespeare was on about, so might trust you to the teaching, grin.<br /><br />i must admit i no longer quite understand what a male/female perspective is. i find my conciousness of my own gender getting fuzzier, especially as i increasingly take on the role of the house husband, and enjoy it. are there perspectives you would consider *particularly female or male?feddabonnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365326300429832990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26094423.post-66067393398905981512010-06-03T16:30:50.019+12:002010-06-03T16:30:50.019+12:00Hmmm I envy you your job.

Let's do a trade, you teach Hamlet/Lawrence and I do your reading/watching :) Black like me sounds interesting and I'd love to take in The Yellow Dog too. As for perspectives, hey even just between male and female there's a whole world of difference, never mind all the cultural, religious, historical etc factors.Calliopiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15291737369959906567noreply@blogger.com
