A continuing question and other matters:
Hey @TheElders and @AfricanUnion, given the widespread suffering, are you going to do anything for Uganda this year? @amnesty #SaveUganda #StandwithUganda

This week I have made the following posts on my other blogs:
- Learning
from the past: the Roosevelts
As I recently mentioned, I've been watching the the Ken Burns documentary from a few years ago on the Roosevelts.
I still have a few episodes to go, but I have been surprised by some of the prescient comments of Theodore Roosevelt - although I still see him as a blood-soaked, militaristic, imperialist and sexist patriarchalist. The comments include that Japan would seek a further war (it takes one to know one?), and that the Republican party would wind up serving "special interests". The extent of his progressivism in his unsuccessful 1912 campaign is also impressive, as is his early (pre-World War One) support for the League to Enforce Peace.
Now for the next episode . . . - OHS
and psychological abuse
Psychological abuse is the next big area of workplace OHS.
Some managers are looking at this already, which is excellent, but a lot of OHS workers and unions, in my experience, are so physically oriented that they are utterly clueless on this aspect
. . .
Interesting reading / viewing / sites this week:
- a map of gender-diverse cultures (from the USA’s PBS);
- discrimination against a Pagan;
- plant blindness.
