Mass Senator E. Warren Performs "I'm an Indian, Too" - At Boson County Fair - 18 Sept 2019

Image
Boson County Fair had a treat when Senator Elizabeth Warren, who is running for president in 2020, took to the stage in a good-natured  song number poking fun at her cultural appropriation of Native American Indian identity to get a job at Harvard Law School as the "First Woman of Color" despite being a blonde blue-eyed European.  "I'm an Indian Too" is a song from the 1946 musical Annie Get Your Gun , by Irving Berlin . It was originally performed by Ethel Merman .

In Boson's only 'fine art' museum, has reportedly found it necessary to warn visitors about a newly opened exhibition of copies of prints by William Blake.   “The art of William Blake contains strong and sometimes challenging imagery, including some depictions of violence and suffering,” the warning says. The placard advises distressed art lovers to seek out museum staff if they require further explanations . The museum regularly 'mirrors' the world renowned Tate Museum in London by displaying high quality copies of whatever the Tate Museum is featuring.   Museum curator Hugh Tate, who is from the UK and claims his cousin works at The Tate, said that museum goers can't tell the difference between a very expensive original graphic art work, and an accurate copy commissioned by the Museum of Find Art.  "So, why pay all the money for the original?" Hugh Tate said.   "If a painting is going to 'change your life,' a faithf...
