Late afternoon scene during rush hour on a Friday afternoon in a hard-working City, facing down the middle of the main expressway in the City's smallest borough, where commuters head in both directions to get home for the weekend; down the middle of the narrow, concrete partition of the expressway, lampposts have been installed; to one side is a barrier of high-rise and skyscraper buildings and to the other, a broad tidal estuary (colloqially known as a "river"); off in the distance, befpre the overcast sky, a fancy bridge crosses the river - a bridge known to make one feel groovy.

#FDR "I have always believed and frequently have stated that my own party (the Democrats) can succeed at the polls only so long as it continues to be the party of militant liberalism “ (1938) Remember: Militant liberalism = Economic populism = social democracy!

“No people, least of all a people with our traditions of personal liberty, will endure the slow erosion of opportunity for the common man, the oppressive sense of helplessness under the domination of a few”
[Stunning to re-read #FDR in light of where we are]

#JimmyCarter announced on #ThisDayInHistory in 1980 a US boycott of the Moscow #SummerOlympics because USSR supported the Afghan government. Meanwhile, Hitler shredded the #VersaillesTreaty & imposed the #NurembergLaws, and #FDR still sent us to the '36 Summer Olympics in Berlin.

Daytime scene on the first day of spring in a paved area behind the railing of a busy expressway in a formerly industrial City, facing toward the speeding traffic through a missing section of the railing which - as it turns out - is rather flimsy for holding up against the monstrous gas guzzlers; at the center of the scene, across the expressway, is a large nineteenth-century brick building which served a number of purposes over the years of this City's immigration and industrial history, and now serves as a public restroom for the punlic park behind it; the park is named after a historic statesman, as is the expressway itself; just beside the old building, there is a massive steam power plant; much of this part of the borough still uses steam for things and that is where it comes from; the steam plant has a tall chimney which we hope emits steam; all around the scene are more modern high-rise buildings, as well as the underside of a pedestrian walking bridge that passes overhead; the sky is overcast.

#FDR created the War Relocation Authority #OnThisDay in 1942 to forcibly deport all #AsianAmericans of Japanese descent to concentration camps; this is part of a long #history of institutionalized racism that #DonaldTrump's fascist administration is reinforcing...
