Design/Shopping
Everywhere
Recently, I made a conscious decison to try my best to purchase American made products in an effort to support our economy and American design. Fast Company has made it a bit easier to manage with their new app Fast Company's United States of Design where you will find top tier American goods for your home, wardrobe, and just about anything else. Searching by state or product type will lead you to the boots, furniture, grill or even the Airstream trailer of your dreams.

The Swedish documentary The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975 continues its run at IFC Center. Check it out to catch a glimpse of vintage footage featuring Angela Davis, Stokley Carmichael and Huey P. Newton seen through the eyes of the Swedish journalists covering the Black Power Movement. The film was the winner of the Audience Award at this year's Sundance Film Festival.
No offense, but if there's a facebook like button, it'll be much easier for me to share.
