A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Sun Ra never disappoints. ... Also, this is a speech titled "On Optimism and Despair" Zadie Smith gave in Berlin on 11/10/16 upon receiving the 2016 Welt Literature Prize:

www.nybooks.com...

"As my dear, soon-departing president well understood, in this world there is only incremental progress. Only the willfully blind can ignore that the history of human existence is simultaneously the history of pain: of brutality, murder, mass extinction, every form of venality and cyclical horror. No land is free of it; no people are without their bloodstain; no tribe entirely innocent. But there is still this redeeming matter of incremental progress. It might look small to those with apocalyptic perspectives, but to she who not so long ago could not vote, or drink from the same water fountain as her fellow citizens, or marry the person she chose, or live in a certain neighborhood, such incremental change feels enormous."

About the group (Nigerian):" Obadikah is a group of old friends who play together in the Cherubim & Seraphim and Baptist churches of the Ikeja and Isale Eko districts. A couple of them were founder-members of the Eko Brass Band; they’ve played with pretty much all the key Nigerian reggae artists. The tunes are mostly traditional Yoruban melodies, often sung at bed-time."

Even if he's installed - it's worth as many people as possible saying Not My President. No Stockholm Syndrome - no Normalizing. If we haven't got our own Mussolini - we have @ least our own Berlusconi , I do fear...Yes - these were the two most unpopular nominees ever - but also more people just voted for Hillary than anyone ever not named Obama. This means: Drumpf has the exact Opposite of a Mandate.
