Thank you, Heidi! I've read some of these books, have bought/borrowed others. I appreciate the the list and all the work you're doing here and in the informative, compassionate podcasts and interviews. <3

Oh, I hope your don't mind, One-Dimensional Man: Studies in the Ideology of Advanced Industrial Society is a 1964 book by the philosopher Herbert Marcuse.

I read this book many moons ago and then seems a couple more perusals along the way and another full read around 2011 maybe. I know it helped me process better when the fascistic techniques and obfuscation raised their head along the way into what we now have.

My deeper thoughts on this piece are about diaspora. I am glad to know I have read several of the books on this list prior to introducing myself to Heidi Siegmund Cuda in January of 2022.

So many in the American populace do not even realize that the constitution to know that fascism exist, is in our very being. Why? We get rid of the very books that were never able to be written. I am of the constitution diaspora is by design.

I like the feeling we are hiding away a few threads back: Though illusion in the world chauvinistic man has created, the illusion, the sense, seems to enable and impart the meaningful usage of language.

One day perhaps you will add The Song of Un: Illustrated with Digital Art to you list. I have been eyeballing new printers in the past couple days.

(The archival rag out of Germany I had ordered years before still sits in my top desk draw. It was in the back of my car the day of the car wreck in St. Louis.)

I think it past time I buy myself a new printer.

Yup, and then I was supposed to be a Professor of Sociology and that didn't work out too well either.
