From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
A BIG idea: start now with President Obama, then hand it over to the next president; an immediate requirement that all states engage communities in town hall meetings - nation-wide; attended by whites, blacks who will educated with their personal stories, how it is day-to-day for young men, fathers, mother, sisters and brothers. They would express their fears as parents, grandparents. We need to teach whites and police personnel what it is like to be the other. The whites and police will be the "student" audience.
If this is too grand, well then, come up with another method of getting this done.
Thank you, Lydia
