Systemic racism, sexism, homophobia and transphobia is what I think of as Robert Shetterly writes about how injustices get "woven into systems of dominance and profit, a social and economic legacy that continues today. That’s the true history and there’s no point calling ourselves Americans if we don’t include the experience of all Americans and those harmed by Americans, the experience lived and the experience suffered." And, I would add bias against the poor, immigrants and those of non-Christian religions.

We are so lucky to walk the planet with Rob Shetterly. Thank you for the wisdom in this collaboration. What a gift for circles of courageous commons.
Giving a pass, ain’t

unfair to victims.
