Following right on the heels of the blogpost in which I talk about how much I love my stuff, comes a video that shows what I actually know to be true about "stuff." This video really resonated with both Chris and me, and the relationship of environmental responsibility and social justice reminded us of Blessed Unrest (see Chris's post about the book). Although I can cognitively rationalize my consumer behavior to justify my frequent trips to Target and IKEA, I know my experiences in Kenya and my gut reaction tell me that she's right.
Watch this - it is worth your 20 minutes.
