I can’t tend this today and I apologize, but I wanted to bring his latest Coffeeklatch and Substack here.
If anyone here remembers the Vietnam War Moratorium, a mass peaceful demonstration that didn’t involve marching as much as it involved wearing black armbands and turning your car’s headlights on during the day [an option modern cars lack], it was very effective and sent a powerful message. Young as I was, I wore an armband to school, and I wasn’t alone in that. My dad put his headlights on to drive me to school and collect me after work, and we weren’t alone in that either.
Dr. Reich talks about needing something similar now and SOON. We need to call it something else, though. And he’s thinking about calling it a mobilization, this time.
Anyway, I want to get this up for people, so here he is, with Heather Lofthouse in the video, and here’s the relevant Substack.

The Substack article is long — you may want to bookmark it and read it in installments.
Also, just an historical reminder: Dr. Reich is Jewish, and his parents were Holocaust survivors. Allow him the courtesy of respecting his opinion, and respecting Heather’s as well, in the first segment of this video.
