A happy looking Richard BF with a victory sign flashing Brittany. Maybe we can solve the Israeli/Palestinian conflict after all.

I wouldn’t believe it if I didn’t see it with my own eyes. Maybe somebody has excellent photoshop skills.

You know, I never actually disagreed with Brittany’s post, in fact in agree with most of what she said. Maybe I should have said that in my post? Hmm…
Anyways, it was just the white male bit that I took issue with. But that’s just an acceptable artefact of the immediacy of this medium: you make your content and make it available as quickly as possible, otherwise you’re not actually in the conversation. I don’t mind people (and myself) getting a post only 80% perfect for the sake of participation, but I certainly retain the right to question the remaining 20%.
Re Israel/Palestine, absolutely. We know its not outside the realms of what we think is ultimately possible with this medium, right? Bring it on.

Thanks to Chuck for the second peace-making session at VloggerCon! First one is
here!
Some people misunderstood the white guy comment, and sometimes I have my head in the academic sand and forget that others haven’t spent years of their lives dissecting race/class/gender/etc. in America, so the whole thing is understandable. I hated the uproar at first, but now I’m thrilled! I hope this conversation keeps going. Lots of good connections were made as a result, not to mention some hilarious misunderstandings and reconciliations!
Israel/Palestine - sure! I work at a Jewish college after years of thinking Palestine’s side made sense. No easy answers, but hopefully conversation can heal us. In our tiny community, that’s already happening

Peace betweeen the sexes, Josh Wolf keeps his footage and isn’t in jail, Scoble leave the evil empire for a podcast startup… yeah, why not go for this world peace thing?!

It’s pity not to be there, but your duscussion afterwards makes me find an inward sesnes of insider out. I just watched the photos and loked at optimistic eyes. I browsed another sites and I’m sure Brittany is whole-hearted involved in hepenings.
Great problem, great intentions, great senses.
