This song, which I wrote in April, is a response to what I have observed and experienced, and is also an act of personal accountability. It was not easy to write, and I struggled with how I, as a straight male, could genuinely speak upon this issue.

“If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.” – Lilla Watson

An exchange between French President Nicolas Sarkozy and President Barack Obama about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The conversation was overheard by reporters at the G20 summit last week. The White House has declined to comment on the exchange. (h/t Mother Jones)

From a batch of emails, released by House Republicans, which show officials tied to failed solar company Solyndra discussing their efforts to get a Department of Energy loan. Vice President Joe Biden’s office, the emails noted, seemed excited about the company.

The White House, responding to the emails, has said that the documents were cherry-picked by Republicans and nothing contained in them indicates “any favoritism to political supporters.”
