Zelenskyy and War

Globalization as we once knew it is dead.

When you go to war, some people will die.

This is a Congress without ambition.

Next year, it's going to be a Waymo in a tux.

This moment calls for honesty, it calls for reflection, and it calls for a renewed commitment to the values that the farmworker movement was built on.

I gotta have lived through some stuff. I gotta make my mistakes. I gotta win enough to get the wisdom part and then I gotta lose enough to speak honestly.

To me, it all goes together so well, ’cause it’s all so me. I never had a conversation with myself about ‘Oh, this fits,’ or, ‘This doesn’t fit.’ It was just, ‘I like this feeling, I like this feeling, I like this feeling,’ create a loose structure for what it could be, get together with musicians who are sensitive and caring, and go for it.

I carried this secret for as long as I did because building the movement and securing farmworker rights was my life’s work. The formation of a union was the only vehicle to accomplish and secure those rights and I wasn’t going to let Cesar or anyone else get in the way.
