Crazies, Liars, Turds and Dirt

Chris Brown is an old friend, an activist, a filmmaker, and a mentor. I’ve had the honour of working with him on and off for years, and he taught me most of what I know about television and its use as a tool for social change.

Over the last little while Chris has been putting some of his reflections online. He was always the exact opposite of an ideologue. He never bought into any political party or program; all that ever mattered to him was achieving a specific social outcome.  This short clip, typical Chris,  is his painfully honest appraisal of the four kinds of people who sustain the exclusion, injury and killing of persons disabled by environmental sensitivities.
