“Remember what we discussed” he said this morning.

The voice of protest
Z is a film based on the 1966 novel by Vassilis Vassilikos, addressing the events surrounding the assassination of the democratic Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis in 1963. A film that captured the director’s outrage about the junta that then ruled Greece.
The voice of protest.
A far cry from the images of Russian tanks lumbering their way into Ukraine sporting what, for me at least, has always been a symbol of freedom lost.

New Beginnings
Questions without Answers
The need for an equitable distribution of wealth is something that Jamie Himlin-Ladd feels strongly about. Whilst at the same time questioning the inevitable outcome and on the impact on society.
Questions about the disparity between the needs of those who have more than is conscionably justified and those that do not have enough to survive.
The answers lie in our understanding of of what wealth actually means and how we define the the concept of self interest. Simple things that have got bent out of shape and distorted by the pace of globalisation.
Reflections
” the paths I follow fan out, coverge and disappear in a swirl of dust “
Difficult to know where to start or where it will all end. We are merely spectators, witnesses to everything we experience.
The move
I have been living in the UK for two long years now. Separated from my family by a hostile environment.
It is tough.
The official policy, created by successive British Governments to discourage the endless flow of economic immigrants from the Third World.
