Swallowing the world
"I set out," [Terkel] said, "to swallow the world."
Robin at Writhe Safely has a beautiful tribute to Studs Terkel. Go check it out, especially if you're bored with election news. Terkel is a fitting alternative on this day when everyone gets to speak their mind.
"If I did one thing I'm proud of, it's to make people feel that together, they count," he said last year.

Aw, thanks Kay. I was just a bit shocked by the lack of coverage on Studs in the progressive 'sphere, then one thing led to another, and away we go.
Robin: I know. Everyone should read at least one of his books. Working and Race were formative to my college education.
