Dusty Moments, America's Finest Blog, is dedicated to photography and the American way of life. With each old snap shot or Kodachrome slide, a bit of the psyche of the person behind the camera is revealed, while simultaneously creating mysteries as to the true nature of the subject's story. The words within this blog are my own. Many of the photographs are mine too, but included also are the dusty moments from my parents and grandparents, as well as, junk store finds.

Santa Teaches Bullying and Discrimination
We just watched Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer and it strikes me, that it is the source of all the world's bullying. Rudolph and Hermie are bullied by everyone, including Santa. The open mockery of anyone that is different is by 21st century standards uncomfortable and deplorable. I suppose the positive message of the story is that Hermie and Rudolph don't give in to that bullying Santa and his crony Comet. They keep it real and stay true to themselves. So in an age where the bullied run amok too often, I guess the bullied folk should do like Rudolph and Hermie and just prove the bullies wrong by being strong and being great. Also, Santa, the reindeer and the Elves need some diversity training ASAP.
