Jeff Brown about why people try to shut down those who have the courage to deal with the truth about abuse
May we all speak our truths, before our buried truths destroy us. Out with the old, in with the true…
“So many people get judged when they refuse to put their pain away. They get judged for showing it, for speaking it, for insisting on sharing their memories of abuse with those they know.

Did You Know Bill Clinton Got AIDS from Magic Johnson?
Daily Show Reporter, Jordan Klepper interviewed a basket of deplorables at a rally and learned that Bill Clinton got AIDS from Magic Johnson.

“I have been involved in ‘the arts’ one way or the other all my life.
Born in Kenya, I lived on a farm and made cards and presents for friends and family – In childhood I learned to use and make from what was around me. … now it is ‘fashionable’ to reuse, recycle.
I run workshops to help people find their creativity.
I have a small seasonal shop ‘Blistering Barnacles’ that I run with my partner.
We make almost everything we sell.
My work on Flickr is more for ‘fun’ – I enjoy entering the groups competitions and manipulating and mangling photos. I Hope my work inspires you”
