I discovered two nights ago the University of Oregon's Interdisciplinary Folklore Graduate degree. How fun it looks!!! You have the option of triple majoring in any of the following: history, english, folk studies, women's studies, ethnic studies, communications, global studies etc... and in Grad school. This is looking like my kinda grad school.
This is a speech by Arundhati Roy that everyone should read and be humbled by. I love the intensity of her compassion and the complexity of her gaze. She makes me want to be a voice in politiics because when you read her political writing you realize that politics aren't politics as you have defined them. Politics are human lives and your personal responsibility. The realities of politics are human suffering, human injustice, and sometimes- human triumph.
