Influential #conservative publisher rips 'dangerous' #Trump

"He has no business being president of the #UnitedStates," said #JoeMcQuaid — the publisher of #Manchester, #NewHampshire's #UnionLeader newspaper.

"He’s a dangerous man and he has a lot of #sycophants, and he has a party which looks at the world today in the political landscape and has determined that they must say nice things about him or they’re not going to get elected."

.> Gandhi's name has been associated with this quote since at least 1982, when the Workshop Of Nonviolence Institute summed up Gandhi's philosophy in an issue of WIN Magazine:

..> Gandhi once observed that every movement goes through four stages: First they ignore you; then they abuse you; then they crack down on you and then you win.

.> The misattributed quote, then, is most likely a combination of Klein's 1914 speech combined with an attempt to summarize Gandhi's nonviolent doctrine and philosophy.

.> a speech by union leader Nicholas Klein in 1914 provides a closer version of the misattributed quote:

..> And, my friends, in this story you have a history of this entire movement. First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you. And that, is what is going to happen to the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America.

am not certain where to begin on this app.
So, maybe i shall that i am also a #UnionLeader locally and provincially (BC, Canada). I have learned that Education is not Apolitical (thank you Dr V. Andreotti/UBC). As such, the work we've done is to create safe spaces for #IndigenousTeachers. I balance between yelling into the abyss [of an anti-Indigenous world] and adding important edits to policy.
