Recognizing the Myth of Throwing Things Away

Environmental activist Annie Leonard points out the fallacy of the belief that we can simply throw things away. This idea has shaped a culture of domination and exploitation, where we can disregard or discard anything we don't like. However, history and our actions cannot be erased, and we carry their consequences. Dr. King also understood that we cannot get rid of our enemies through hatred or violence.
