You must have come across it or at least heard about Russell Brand's you tube rants at one time or another. When did Brand become an enormously influential, political voice? Some time between the drug talk, the jokes and the Katy Perry marriage fling, Brand started speaking up and out in an insightful, intellectually stimulating and politically passionate way. Yes, I just said it. Maybe indirectly but I like it, love it and I want some more of it. Please, someone strip away the politics from the politicians, the aggression from the aggressors and the bias from the media!
Thank you Brand for creating The Trews because sadly (for them politicians and bigwigs) you say it better and without so much shite. Thank you for trying to set an example for others on how to BE the change, rather than being the change for people. If it's a revolution we need as you say, so be it, but just the fact of reminding people that yes, we are truly capable human beings of changing things ourselves - each and every one of us is capable of embodying change and creating something better than before. Together we can achieve more but don't go relying on some leader to come up with the "right" way to do things. Cultivate your own way. Cultivate your own change.
