"The tragedy in the lives of most of us is that we go through life walking down a high-walled lane with people of our own kind, the same economic situation, the same national background and education and religious outlook. And beyond those walls, all humanity lies, unknown and unseen, and untouched by our [their] restricted and impoverished lives."


- Florence Luscomb, architect, suffragist (1887-1985)

I assume Ms. Luscomb meant intellectually and culturally restricted and impoverished, the exact plight we suffer in America today.

From the little bit I've read, she was quite the worker for human rights.

They also have their purity tests for level of piety, and just how faithful they are to Reagan or Ayn Rand, etc.

Republican mentality exists in a far away universe from my world.......

Very meaningful photo. Thanks!.....
