The Unrealized American Dream

Do yourself, and the U.S. in general, a favor and check out Bitch Ph.D.'s notes on the Institute for Policy Studies report "40 Years Later: The Unrealized American Dream." It's a dark and beautiful introduction to the longer work itself, a tiny expose of our rotten little cores. Think we've progressed in matters of racial equality since 1968?

Wrong.

After reading her wonderfully written piece, for the love of change and empathy, head over to the Institute for Policy Studies and read the whole damned report yourself. Don't count on anyone else's interpretation;

read, judge, be aware.

Do whatever you can, in your own little way, to make some part of this better.

It's whatcha here for.
