‘bread and roses’
posted by soe 1:27 am

I did not watch the State of the Union speech tonight. I could imagine what was going to be said, imagine how little it would matter, and imagine the sort of person who would find it inspiring. I am not that person and I suspect you are not either.

So, instead I’ll offer you this clip from the 2014 film Pride, about queer London youth and Welsh miners coming together to offer each other support in the 1980s. Because maybe that’s the sort of union I’d like to hear more about, and I suspect I’m not alone.
