Even though the walls are painted bright yellow with motivational sayings and program jargon, these rooms were actually some of the scariest rooms in the school. Children were locked in here for hours, days and even weeks at a time until they were compliant with the program rules. Much of what is written on the walls are part of the WWASP program jargon such as "step left." This jargon is learned through the program seminars which are direct rips of the old Lifestream EST-style seminars.
This isolation room has a window but the children were punished harshly if they were caugh looking out it.

The view might be pleasant but the children were punished harshly if they were caught looking out it.

For June 12th, 2018, closing in on the second anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub Massacre in Orlando, Florida, there were nationwide protests led by youth to call for better gun regulations and safer schools. The cause became even more urgent in the wake of the Stoneman Douglas School Shooting in Parkland, Florida, on March 7, 2018, and the continued refusal by politicians funded by the National Rifle Association to do anything about gun violence.
As the Pulse had been a nightclub catering to gay men and transgender women of Latino/Latina backgrounds, there was a lot of intersectional advocacy at the protest on behalf of LGBT and people of color communities as well.
I was honored to witness the Los Angeles rally and die-in next to City Hall.

Never Again – For many Jews that means never again will they allow themselves to be the victims of such evil schemes like the one that Adolf Hitler concocted and forced upon them. So we pray for the protection of the Jews and that it will never happen again.
Never Again – For others it means that never again will they be driven from the Land of Israel that the Lord promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. So we pray for the preservation of the Jewish people in the land.
Never Again – It means to yet others that never again will Israel be subject to another power, but that it will always be a sovereign nation. So we pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6)
The phrase Never Again comes from the second chapter of Joel where the Lord promises that He will restore Israel from waste and barrenness and attack. He promises them that,
You will have plenty to eat, until you are full.
And you will praise the name of the LORD your God
Who has worked wonders for you.
Never again will my people be shamed.”
Then you will know that I am in Israel
That I am the LORD your God,
And that there is no other;
Never again will my people be ashamed.
Once Again the trees are bearing their fruit and the vines are yielding their fruit. Once Again the autumn and spring rains have return to the Land. Once Again the land is filled with grain and overflowing with new wine and oil. Once Again Israel is strong. Make no mistake about it. All this has come to pass because of the LORD’s great love for Israel. Yes, there is no lack of passion and persistence and commitment from the Jewish people, but all of the passion, persistence, and commitment in the world is worth nothing without the blessing of Almighty God.
Which is why Once Again the glory of the LORD will shine all throughout Zion, when Israel turns its eyes upon the LORD and all Jews, from orthodox to secular, proclaim that Jehovah is the LORD their God and that there is no other. For in that day, He will conquer Israel’s enemies once and for all and He will “restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem” and “Judah will be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem throughout all generations.”
The Aliyah is happening, but it is not yet complete. The restoration of Israel in ongoing, but the work is still not done. The land is blossoming, but its fruition is not full. But Messiah is coming and the LORD is forging the path to the day when all of Israel and all of the nations will hear Him say, “THE LORD DWELLS IN ZION! NEVER AGAIN WILL MY PEOPLE BE ASHAMED!”

This was the "new" gym that was constructed shortly before the closure of the school. The circle of chairs are part of groups that kids had to do during the seminar as part of a "lifeboat" exercise where they chose which of their peers would live or die as part of emotionally breaking them down.
Had nothing to post, went through archives, and found this humiliating gem!
And thanks to the nice placement of the NYU torch, looks like my nipples are on fire!
Please don't view "large".

Activists of all ages gathered for an afternoon of art, music and politics at our third Democracy Cafe in Mill Valley. This month, we looked into solutions to end gun violence, through a range of activities designed to inspire us to action. We started the day by making signs for the ‘March for Our Lives’ rally. We then sang along with the Freedom Singers. Marin County Supervisor Kate Sears led a group discussion on gun reform. Young singer Emma Spike performed songs of hope, and music director Reed Fromer led a final sing-along with some classic tunes about social change.
This free public event took place on Sunday, March 18th from 2 to 5pm, at the O'Hanlon Center for the Arts in Mill Valley. We were delighted to see many young people come make their own signs against gun violence, then stay to sing and talk with us.
Thanks to all our friends and neighbors who came to join their voices, minds and hearts to energize each other and create a better world. Kudos to our co-hosts Marilyn Price, Jennifer Tomkins, Rebecca Brackman, Grace Severtson -- and everyone who helped us organize this uplifting community event.
Democracy Cafe is a series of free creative and civic events led by Fabrice Florin and a growing community of activists and artists in Marin. We think making art, playing music and talking with people of all ages and backgrounds can build mutual understanding and engage us to take meaningful political action together.
Join your neighbors to make political art and music -- and keep democracy alive!
