The really dangerous American fascist… is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power… They claim to be super-patriots, but they would destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They demand free enterprise, but are the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. Their final objective, toward which all their deceit is directed, is to capture political power so that, using the power of the state and the power of the market simultaneously, they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.
U.S. Vice President Henry A. Wallace, quoted in the New York Times, April 9, 1944 (via cognitivedissonance <— Everyone should follow this tumblr!)

Rachael Gray: Shoemaking Class update

Fix the economy!  Help someone start a business by getting training!

It was not all that long ago (2008) that I took the course that changed my life and catapulted me into owning/opperating a latex design business.  Learning the tools of a trade has unlocked the creative potential that was formerly left to the inside of my head… now that my hands know how to finish the job.

Rachel Grey is trying to do the same but for Shoe design and I like the cut of her jib.  If you have a few bucks kicking around your paypal account, why not donate a little to help her out on her goal for paying for some professional training!

DONATE TO THE SHOEMAKING COURSE FUND FOR RACHEL GREY 

P.s. THIS IS WHAT THIS DAMN ECONOMY NEEDS!!!  Help for enthusiastic risk taking entrepreneurs, artists and hard workers… Not tax rebates for millionaires.  I’m so glad I’m Canadian…

I just got off the phone with the people who run the small shoe school I am hoping to attend. Not only are they lovely people for allowing me to take classes that are already full, but I ended the call with excited jitters running through me. This sounds like exactly the sort of education I need….
