Lately, I've been watching old movies about ordinary people forming unions to fight for their rights to be treated decently. Wilmar 8, the Salt of the Earth, powerful woman striding forth into battles, leading the way. Then there are the books I've read and movies I've seen seen about the gay rights battles, the civil rights era, and the anti war era, all of the 60's rebellion. I was alive through it all, yet completely oblivious to almost all of it.
