How cool is this? Somebody got a picture of me at the march down fifth avenue today! A favorite sign I saw was "They're cashing the checks. They're cashing the dividends."

An image of nine cities, some listed as states, showing huge numbers of protesters. I've put a colored box around NYC and a matching arrow and my initials, M.K., which supposedly show me in the Hands Off march today.

Not as clear as I want it to be, but I'm trying to get into the habit of knocking out longer essay pieces without as much polish. Not because I want to be a less polished writer, but b/c I too often allow perfect to be an enemy of good.

Check it out, let me know what you think, style, word choice, content, etc

Today in Labor June 30, 1906: United States Congress passes the Meat Inspection Act and Pure Food and Drug Act in response to Upton Sinclair's novel, “The Jungle,” which exposed atrocious sanitary conditions in Chicago meat packing industry. Sinclair intended his book not only to bring attention to the public health threat of the squalid working conditions, but also to the racism faced by Chicago’s largely immigrant meat workers, as well as the corruption of both the politicians and union officials. However, the public was most outraged by the prospect of getting food poisoning from the rotten meat.

Some "decommissioned #CoalPlants — sites that still sit in the center of webs of power lines could onboard future clean power onto the grid while avoiding the roadblocks around permitting new transmission corridors.

The Geomap researchers found that many of the West’s sites — #greenhouses, #meatpacking facilities, chemical plants and #DataCenters — sit atop heat that could be tapped directly, without needing to generate electricity, which is a cheaper proposition."
