Crash into meAug 31, 2005

Saw Crash tonight. Great film with a lot to say about race in America, or really just one thing said many ways. Also: hoping my iPod gets fixed before my New York flight, annoyed by sudden heat, and convincing myself peanut M&Ms count as dinner.

Tanks apparently rolled into LA to intimidate anti-war protesters. The video looks real, sourced from IndyMedia via AlterNet. Protesters immediately struck Tiananmen Square poses, which is both funny and depressing. I'm skeptical but can't explain away the footage.
