"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Human rights, politics, history, archaeology, public health, lolcats.

This is my blog, not a newsfeed. I sometimes joke around and post things that are unrelated to politics/human rights. If this irritates you, don't follow me.

If you're offended by profanity, liberal sensibilities, rampant idealism or flagrant self-indulgence, just save yourself the trouble and run far, far away.

Let me know if you want me to answer privately.
