Projection: Paine.



I hope this video made you giggle and ponder, because it wasn't just posted for the pretty English accents.
I chose this video in particular as my video source because it is informative and humorous. Everything that the charismatic British man spoke of, in relation to Tom Paine, was very founded and very true. Tom Paine was a multi-talented individual; he not only sparked revolutionary ideas, but he made women look good.

Project Paine


"Tom Paine's Common Sense, which appeared in early 1776 and became the most popular pamphlet in the American colonies did this."
'This' being: "to find language inspiring to all classes, specific enough in its listing of grievances to charge people with anger against the British, vague enough to avoid class conflict among the rebels, and stirring enough to build patriotic feeling for the resistance movement."
What be this quothing? This be quotes from the history enlightenment novel A People's History of the United States. In this context, Howard Zinn was refuring to Paine as the author of Common Sense, author who struck up the masses and inspired the spirit of battle. But I don't want to talk about the Paine. I wish to indulge in the Paine that caused pain; beautiful, hour-glass, pain.
Tom Paine the corset maker.

This season's blog will be featured around woman's fashion; where it came from, who it came from, how it effected people, and where it is at today.
