The Girl in the Cafe

Just saw The Girl in the Cafe - a made-for-HBO movie that just came out.

I highly recommend it. Not just for the aesthetics, not just for the "speak truth to power" sentiments I'm a disciple of, not just for the timeliness.

The best line: "Does it matter whose child it was?"

No, it doesn't. We all have responsibility to work to improve lives for all others - not just our own children, our own families, our own people, our own countries. Extreme poverty in the world is shocking in its brutality, and it's only a google search away from learning something about it.

And yes, we all have the responsibility for that shocking brutality.
