“My hope is to blur the lines between the tangible and the ephemeral. By delving into Spaceman’s subconscious we are able to explore the cathartic nature of artistic creation and the ways in which it can offer a sense of purpose, as well as the danger and risk to one’s sense of self,” Director Abramovici is quoted as saying. “Spaceman is a unique film in many ways, including it being highly commercially viable while staying true to its artistic integrity. It’s a movie that audiences all over the world will relate to on so many levels.” Article by Gregg W. Morris
A Roadmap for a Tyrant: ACLU Experts on Project 2025
The team that developed 2025 consists of over 140 former Trump administration officials, laying out a series of invasive and downright harmful proposals to go after most fundamental rights. Take abortion rights, for example. Project 2025 wouldn’t stop at sweeping abortion bans – already a devastating prospect. Their proposal goes even further, cutting funding to states that don’t report a slew of deeply specific and personal medical details regarding abortion, miscarriage care, pregnancy complications, and reproductive health care in general.That’s a massive invasion of privacy. It is absolutely weird that anyone would want the government having so much information about our personal health. But you know what else it is? Dangerous totalitarianism.
Every proposal in the Project 2025 manifesto has this same, disturbing focus – they want to strip away rights at any cost. That’s why we’re showing up in force to stop Project 2025 now. Our experts have the strategy to win across every civil liberty issue at stake – but we need you with us.
*the WORD considers Trump – because of his extreme racism and hostility to People of Color – an Existential Threat. Too many of his Base are way too comfortable with those MAGA creature features. And too many corporate news media don’t bite the bullet when they write about him being an authoritarian or a tyrant and obviously dodging the racism issues.

HOW TO SUE THE KLAN is a riveting tour de force by Director Jon Beder for a number of reasons but here is one standout. The meticulous and unflinching way he made the film makes the 35-minute short feel as if it has the aesthetic sweep and scope of a feature-length movie resonating with African-American philosophy, history, culture, activism. And lore. Review, article by Gregg W. Morris
