how much land is too much land? are you saying we can't own everything? did you forget about how borders work from sophomore geography? meh, there are no borders... take whatever you want... just don't forget to pay...

sometimes you gotta sit and listen... sometimes things go wrong, get out of hand and there's no turning back... sometimes the whole world feels like a bush of snakes... we present, to you, the story of what starts as progress and ends as The Trail of Tears...

the real question is bloomers vs whale bone dresses... and of course coffee vs tea... and also occasionally is living communally better than living individually... but really, let's talk about bloomers some more and the way each individual limb comes into glorious being...
the constitution? democracy? a republic? (like rome?) washington-adams-madison-jefferson-hamilton??? wait, people have rights? you know about this stuff?
wanna hear the entire American Revolution summed up in a paragraph? wanna hear how Virginia owns everything? wanna hear the word "aggreeved" used in a sentence? done, done & done...
you feelin' stressed? the weight of the world got you down? the tyrannical forces from every angle keep knockin' on your door tryin' to wedge their foot in and gain just a little more ground? or is tyranny an illusion? should we all just stop complaining and relearn the words to Kumbaya? is it too late for us to find some common ground? (now i'm feeling stressed...)
ever heard of a guy named Bacon? he was a real rebel. fought so hard he died. but that was just the beginning. was he mean? was he vile? better question: are you mean? are you vile?
this is the second half of the story we started last week... to be clear, not the end of a story. nowhere near the end. this is probably a story without an end. this is history, for whatever it's worth.
stop me if you've heard this story... the year is 1619. the place is Jamestown. the scene is of a ship sailing into port. the cargo is twenty slaves. alot is about to happen. so much that we're splitting this chapter in two...
columbus: who was he? hero? villain? model citizen? secret cult leader? who knows for sure? we don't, but we'll talk about it.
