A long-ignored digression during his first address to Congress, demands discussion and reflection on Labor Day. Few Americans know what friendly terms Pesident Lincoln and Karl Marx were on as contemporaries.

Welp, that’s two down and one to go. Summer holidays are pretty straightforward affairs being mostly about drinking and eating too much.

The talk surrounding if socialism has found a home in the US has been stirring for some time now. It's a conversation about the emergence of more progressive politicians, intensified economic inequality, and disillusionment with capitalism.

When and where you are born determines many of the assumptions you grow up with. For example, there’s a laundry list of things certain (white) people in the United States take for granted. Like many girls of my generation, I grew up simply assuming that one day I would marry a man, have babies, live in a house that we owned and, of course, we would each have our own car.
