Strong radiohead, OK computer vibes, good stuff

We all live in our own bubbles, and they all burst eventually, but whether that happens before or after you die, is up to you.

A story about the Men who think they can own the world, who never feel sorry, or ever seem to learn. They own whips made of cold hard cash, and they whip you till your inner child is dead.

Moyers & Company's Michael Winship writes:

A week and a half ago, just as a blizzard was barreling up the East Coast, I traveled to my hometown, Canandaigua, NY, and before a standing-room-only audience of more than 400 at Finger Lakes Community College, had a conversation with author and climate activist Naomi Klein.

Our talk was part of the George M. Ewing Forum, named in honor of the late editor and publisher of our local newspaper. He was a worldly and informed man, dedicated to good talk and a lively exchange of ideas. The forum brings to town a variety of speakers each year, some of them from the area, others not.

The Finger Lakes region is a beautiful part of the country. As has often been said, it runs on water, and as I grew up, there was an increasing realization that what we have is an invaluable natural resource we could be in danger of losing. Over the years, the threats have grown ever more complex with greater hazards revealed as pollution and development have encroached on the landscape. As a result, much of our audience was composed of environmentalists and concerned citizens, including a contingent from We Are Seneca Lake, the grass roots campaign fighting against the use of crumbling salt mines under the hillsides to store fracked natural gas and liquefied petroleum gases. (One of its leaders is biologist, mother and Moyers & Company guest Sandra Steingraber.)

The conversation with Naomi Klein was billed as “Capitalism vs. The Climate: Reflections on the 2015 UN Climate Conference,” and while we certainly spoke a great deal about that recent climate agreement in Paris, our talk ranged more widely as we discussed her life and work, politics, the continuing right-wing denial of global warming, and the climate justice movement.

Naomi Klein is an award-winning journalist, syndicated columnist and author of the bestseller, The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism. She’s a member of the board of directors for 350.org, the global grassroots movement to solve the climate crisis. Among many other honors, in 2015 she received The Izzy Award – named after the great writer and editor IF Stone -- celebrating outstanding achievement in independent journalism and media.

Klein's most recent book, This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs the Climate, was shortlisted for the 2015 PEN Literary Awards in the nonfiction category. A documentary based on the book, directed by Avi Lewis, was released last fall.

Our conversation has been edited for length and clarity.

Level 40

[Verse 1]
Yo we're all here spinning on this planet it's our mission,
Living lives a little different though share a single instance,
They say death and taxes is a given, but I got another definite,
Just it’s a matter of opinion,
I feel that we gotta put up with a test of faith,
All live it every day just call it a different name,
We struggle in our own way to compensate,
Overcome hardship at a slow pace, beat that rat race,
Of course, you got your obstacles, mentally or physical,
Cutting through that ridicule, people trynna hinder you,
Check 'em in that rear-view, as you cruise on through,
Always just be true to you and don't be told what to do,
Shrug it off, let nonchalance be your armor,
Shan't harbor ill feels letting go gives you power,
Can't slip aboard a sinking ship, I won't let you drown,
Be proud let me hear you say, you're not gonna bring me down.

[Chorus]
Say what you want, cos, yawl, you ain't gon' bring me down,
I'm feeling lifted right now, like my feet don't touch the ground,
And I say, turn the volume high now and share this feeling around,
Let the vibrant vibe vibrate and create resonating sound.

[Verse 2]
Just know I'm above ya if you're trynna pull me under, 
Gotta wonder why we suffer instead of helping one another,
Not a relative, a brother, a mother, it doesn't bother me,
I'll love ya if you're loving me, if not stop blocking my chi,
So be the best, and beat the rest, you're gonna climb high, 
Start aiming for Everest, pass the test, don’t settle less, 
Get that stress up off your chest, we are blessed, 
We got that zest, in our life lest we forget,
I'll quit spitting it corny, cliché or just boring,
But I gotta reiterate, that this feeling is warming, 
Blocked the negative energy from my sensory memory,
And eventually, none of these problems were sweating me,
Depressingly lived, letting little shit get to me,
Steadily preparing mentally, I found my identity,
Now I readily turndown anytime I see a frown
Cause now, I don't let ya mother lumpers bring me down.

[Chorus]
Say what you want, cos, yawl, you ain't gon' bring me down,
I'm feeling lifted right now, like my feet don't touch the ground,
And I say, turn the volume high now and share this feeling around,
Let the vibrant vibe vibrate and create resonating sound.
