This tells us a lot about Trump, but it also speaks to the power of the wall as a symbol, which is both monumental in its simplicity and elusive enough to sustain any number of meanings, often based — as Ursula K.

" Ben Brantley, in his review in The Times of a recent Off Broadway production of this bawdy musical, wrote that Mr. Springer's TV show was "a confessional forum for dysfunctional and dispossessed Americans," adding that the musical "may be the richest theatrical means we have for channeling the heaving American id that put Mr. Trump in the White House.

She won five Hugo awards, science fiction's most prestigious honor, for titles including "The Left Hand of Darkness," set on the planet of Gethen where fixed gender identity doesn't exist; "The Dispossessed," which Le Guin called an "anarchist utopia" novel, and "The Word for World is Forest," where colonists from Earth have enslaved the native planet population.

Her work was also marked by loving descriptions of the natural world (even if it was the natural world of an imagined planet), and by her ability to give dramatic shape to complex political ideas — she won the Hugo and Nebula again for The Dispossessed, a long utopian novel that contrasts the capitalist planet of Urras with the anarchist world of Anarres.

" The judge continues, "The mirage of promised mortgage modification lured the plaintiff debtors into a Kafka-esque nightmare of stay-violating foreclosure and unlawful detainer, tardy foreclosure rescission kept secret for months, home looted while the debtors were dispossessed, emotional distress, lost income, apparent heart attack, suicide attempt, and post-traumatic stress disorder, for all of which Bank of America disclaims responsibility.

General Dyer's very British determination to teach the colonized population a lesson was rooted in the memories of the Great Rebellion of 1857, when Indian rebels — sepoys of the British Indian Army, peasants, artisans and dispossessed landholders and rulers — revolted against the East India Company, killed several Europeans and brought the company to its knees in much of northern India.

But what rising up from poverty did was to make me more empathetic, not less, to those who came before me: Native Americans, some of whom were my ancestors too; the downtrodden and dispossessed at the first European settlement in Plymouth Harbor; the Irish immigrants fleeing famine in the nineteenth century; and Jewish refugees fleeing hate in Europe in the 20th century.

In the past five years, as the number of people displaced worldwide by conflict and persecution has reached a level not seen since the end of World War II, many Germans have expressed pride that their nation — which unleashed the violence that prompted the earlier mass flight — has now become a beacon of safety and opportunity for imperiled and dispossessed people around the world.

To speak about the economy with any efficacy, or so as to provide any entertainment, the senator would have to take all the ugly, corrupt, almost animal malfeasance that lurks below the shiny machined surfaces of terminology like "mortgage-backed securities" and "predatory lending," and breathe it into life, into lives, into real-seeming sagas of real people who'd been duped, indebted, and dispossessed—hardworking, American, etc.

Fittingly, a coalition of community organizations, artists, activists, and labor groups has responded with its own version of a cultural plan — the People's Cultural Plan — a concise, 17-page document that is relentless in its specificity and commitment to the frame of community, particularly the communities of color that have and continue to be underfunded and dispossessed in our city, often in the guise of culture.

Nearly everything in his current exhibition at Gavin Brown's Enterprise is related to the artist's profound interest in exhuming and archiving the discarded and the dispossessed — from the work of forgotten painters and obscure jazz musicians to children's art to obsolete electronics to his own art — not as an act of nostalgia, but rather as a way to seek new ground and then open up it up for collective examination.

Then, in the final verse, the scope broadens: The riots started slowly With the homeless and the lowly Then they spread into the heartland Towns that never get a wristband Kids that can't afford the cool brand Whose anger is a shorthand For you'll never get a wristband It is hard to tell whether Simon is ennobling his fit of pique by comparing it to the anger of the dispossessed or mocking his own overreaction.
