“My head is full of fire and grief and my tongue runs wild, pierced with shards of glass.” ― Federico García Lorca

"Cory Morningstar captures The Simulacrum in her multi-part series on the non-profit industrial complex, domesticating the populace is a fait accompli, and the only question remaining is what will happen if and when capitalist activism is seen for what it is. By following the money from aristocratic derivatives to embodiments of false hope like Avaaz, MoveOn, and Change, Morningstar steps through the looking glass to expose how NGOs have become a key tool of global dominance using social media as a means of social manipulation."Jay Taber, Associate scholar of the Center for World Indigenous Studies
