@if_i_only_had_a_heart: I am serious, she said they also got flack for covering some farm workers in florida i believe that were virtual prisoners but luckily that story and exposure changed it up a bit. She also spoke about her mother and that was really something. It's a really good interview. #gourmet
@if_i_only_had_a_heart: Then to quote Racheal Zoe , they will D I E . Seriously , she said that for doing a Latin issue , featuring the wide range of Latin cuisine and so forth , some readers told them to "Keep their politics out of the magazine" It is crazy because Gourmet had also landed a lot of cross promotional stuff and seemed to be on the come-up. Oh well, hopefully it will reemerge elsewhere. #gourmet
Ruth Reichl was on NPR two days ago and it was pretty sad when she she described how Si told her the magazine was closing. She said that this last issue, November, wold have been very different if they had known that "this was it".She also spoke about the political aspect of Gourmet and how their Latin special stirred up some angry comments and letters regarding immigrants in America. She spoke about food sustainability and the politics of food. I made me really miss the magazine even more #gourmet
No matter how solemn the circumstances, the name "Harvey Milk" only conjures up in my mind one sole, base thought. Involving Lance Black. I have such a ridiculous straight girl crush on him, it's retarded.
From George Tenet to Harvey Milk. Change I can believe in.
The rest of the list is none too shabby, either. Desmond Tutu, Billie Jean King, Ted Kennedy, Stephen Hawking, Sidney Poitier and more through the link.

How about this Barry: instead of taking the easy routes (words, symbolic actions, etc.) -- effect some real "change" in this country, hmm?
