Silence and Voice

Hugh MacLeod over at Gaping Void really got it right in his cartoon about power and work. Click it to see the image and comments in context. 

This can be used in a lot of contexts, from power and positionality within organizations to the image of th pawn wanting to be king, though he (she?) will never be more than a queen no matter how great the effort. I never thought about chess as being a game with possible feminist overtones.

And all from considering only one cartoon . . .
