I don't post insghtful diaries

Mon Apr 14, 2008 at 09:08:25 PM PDT

But I will post a tribute to Hillary Clinton's blue collar supporters, only because the late hour makes me feel snarky. So, vilify me all you want MSM. And 'cling' to this song, rural America.

Something To Be Angry About (Besides Hillary Clinton)

Mon Apr 14, 2008 at 06:03:45 PM PDT

Not much of a diary, just some silly diversion. But this Pachelbel rant is something we can channel our anger towards, besides Clinton, for a moment.

Lift Every Voice and Sing

Fri Apr 04, 2008 at 08:57:50 AM PDT

I don't have much to say. I just wanted to share with the Daily Kos community the lyrics to, and a quite beautiful rendention of, the song 'Lift Every Voice and Sing'. Its one of my favorite poems. In fact its blended acknowledgement of so many aspects of the human condition,  though epitomized through black experience in America, makes it on of the most inspiring and life affirming pieces I've ever come across.

 

Affirmative Action

Fri Mar 28, 2008 at 08:02:46 PM PDT

In order to achieve ‘A More Perfect Union’ we must be willing to address some issues with honesty, integrity, empathy and knowledge. Of course one of the most divisive issues in this nation is race. How do we balance the need to address the real inequalities our legacy of chattel slavery, segregation, and social stigmatization have created while simultaneously aspiring to create a nation where no in discriminated against due to the color of their skin or held unduly accountable for the sins of their father?

Can well crafted race-neutral affirmative action programs mitigate white resentment while simultaneously addressing historically inflicted inequalities?
