"Would it been the ‘Pink House’ if the paint had been pink?" When I read this, I immediately thought of Big Pink, where The Band recorded their first album in 1968. Showing my age, I know. :(
I suppose I'm a bit cynical, but when I think of "Green House" my mind quickly turns to currency rather than the ecosystem. You see, Michael, I call myself "politically homeless" for a reason ... I find very little trust in those who occupy the halls of power in D.C.
That said, I appreciate and applaud your reference to the White House being built on the backs of slaves. I remember a scene from the John Adams HBO series where the newly elected 2nd president and first lady Abigail first visit their new home. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0PE_kC-3EY
Pretty dramatic.
Anyway, thank you for your thought-provoking insights. I look forward to your next entry. -- Jim
Well Jim, you have taken my breathe away with this clip you linked on YouTube!
When Abagail Adams spoke, chills went shooting down my back ...
This echos exactly why we the people, say us commoners, need to speak up and speak out.
1 Green Home is meant to sponsor this dialog and a change of heart with a name change!
