The Dissident?

December 24th 2007 05:22
I once heard in a documentary that the great American writer John Steinbeck was a dissident of his time, which I agree with.
Standing up for his beliefs and convictions versus various counterparts, those in politics and organizations that had ideas and ways of doing things that he would disagree with from time-to-time. Everyone can change and literature can change the world, just by you reading this proves that fact.

I will be bringing issues to the forefront that intrigue, inspire and enrage me. Headlines and sites to find this information, free to the public will be my main focus as if you do not know this already "knowledge is power".


For my first post entitled ToxiCity, here at 'The Dissident' I will be looking into the issue of the oil industry in and around our new world, with a big focus on the oil sands, close to me in Alberta.

There's a lot on Orble about Steinbeck today. This is the second post I've come across today that had to do with him. I love his work.

I will be bringing issues to the forefront that intrigue, inspire and enrage me

I look forward to it.
