Chance for Peace - Eisenhower
YouTube video by Tarpeian Archives Chance for Peace - Eisenhower

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone.

"It was hardly a nursery for intellectuals, it was a hotbed of false values, it harbored an unattractive percentage of small-time crooks & con artists, & the chances of being successful there were minimal. But it was fascinating, & if you were lucky, it was fun."

Stratego (/strΙ™Λˆtiːɑoʊ/ strΙ™-TEE-goh) is a chess-like strategy board game for two players on a board of 10Γ—10 squares. Each player controls 40 pieces representing individual officer and soldier ranks in an army. The pieces have Napoleonic insignia. The objective of the game is to either find and capture the opponent's Flag or to capture all movable enemy pieces so that the opponent cannot make any further moves. Stratego has simple enough rules for young children to play but a depth of strategy that is also appealing to adults.

Barry McGuire originally sang "Eve of Destruction," the famous 1965 protest song he recorded in one take, though songwriter P.F. Sloan had offered it to other artists like The Byrds, who passed on it before McGuire's version became a massive hit.

Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin'
I'm sittin' here just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
Handful of senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'

War - Edwin Starr | The Midnight Special

War, I despise
'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives
War means tears to thousands of mother's eyes
When their sons go off to fight
And lose their lives
I said, war, huh (good God, y'all)
What is it good for?

Conductor Arturo Toscanini stated that she had a voice that came along once in a hundred years.

When welcoming her to his house, composer Jean Sibelius bowed and said, "My roof is too low for you" such was his admiration.

 Honored Artist of the USSR since 1970, People's Artist of Ukraine. Pablo Picasso once said after visiting a Prymachenko exhibition in Paris, β€œI bow down before the artistic miracle of this brilliant Ukrainian. The year 2009 was declared the Year of Maria Prymachenko by the UNESCO. 

This miracle of colour and invention had her bast shoes planted firmly on the soil of her native land. Maria Aksentievna Primachenko (1908–1997) was a Ukrainian peasant. Her astonishingly fertile picture plane was located in the flat limitless horizon of the Ukrainian steppe. 

Primachenko lived her life in the village of Bolotnya in the Kyiv region. She contracted polio as a child. Her already empathetic character became heightened into a profound sense of universality that in earlier times might have been seen as almost pantheistic. In the Ukraine of the immediate post-Revolutionary period this would, of necessity, find more nuanced modes of expression.

The Suppressed History of the Black Socialist Tradition Milquetoast retellings and moderate cooptation cannot bury radical Black history. Socialists would do well to remember that as we build our movement.

Essay: The powers often water down the history of Black socialism to force it into the American exceptionalist project: focusing on individuals rather than movements, or uplifting the elements of the movement that make people comfortable while ignoring its more subversive and revolutionary aspects.
