We Are Looking To Brands For Poetry

There Are Lots Of Incredible People Who Are Working In Very Flawed Structures That Are Designed To Keep Us Apart, So We're Going To Have To Figure This Out. The First Stage Is Just Talking About It Openly: We Are All Working Within Structures Where There Is A Disincentive To Do What We Most Need To Do, Which Is Come Together.
