Farewell — Bob Herbert’s Last NYT Column

Bob Herbert has spent years writing about lives and challenges of those increasingly voiceless and often invisible in our society.   He has been a fiercely moral voice writing about the immorality of torture, killing, institutional injustice against the poor, or working people or minorities -- always making the case that you can't be a great nation by demonizing and dehumanizing those who aren't so fortunate.  There is alot to commend about his career -- I probably remember best his writing against torture and his dogged effort to not let the people of Tulia targeted by law enforcement out of control get out of our sight.
