Yesterday the plywood shelter in my side yard grew taller. Two fellow medics and a fellow southerner swung hammers and lifted panels with me. We set in the loft, lifted the gables and topper, and finished skinning the roof panel, which should be in place tomorrow after lunch.

With torn-up palms and a ladder on the roof of my car, two of us went to a screening and discussion of Shock Doctrine by Radical Public Health. It was a packed but intimate event, well-divided between public health professionals, students, and undocumented youth. Our discussion ultimately turned to creative solutions or victories we had seen of the public against private interests that sought to monetize something intrinsically valuable. - Comments: 0
