I'm ranked No. 74. I can remember when it was in the mid-50s a decade or so ago. Luck of the Irish, I guess.

Let's see how the nationalists feel, and if they can knock ol' Ecevit on his ear between now and November's elections. After all, they want to have their Kurds (and their way)!

We don't have to listen to the same story society tells us, even if we like it so much that we've built it into the social fabric.

In a recent Reason interview, Neal Stephenson mentions Walter Wink: [...] Wink’s interpretation of the New Testament is that Jesus was not a pacifist milksop but (among other things) was encouraging people to resist the dominant power system of the era, that being the Roman Empire. Mind you, Wink is no fan of violence either, and he devotes a lot of ink to attacking what he calls the Myth of Redemptive Violence, which he sees as a meme by which domination systems are perpetuated. But he is clearly all in favor of people standing up against oppressive power systems of all stripes. [...]

Knowing nothing about Wink before reading that, I went looking and found this, and this and this. (And, to come closer to the impetus for your post, this.)

Lastly, a Seattle Times article from September '02 has some academics' takes on "Uncle Tom's Cabin."
