What happens to a dream deferred?

About Me

Here we go... "If questions always lead to action, then a critical look at our own movements should always propel us onward. Looking critically at the movements and rebellions of the last few years, a need for sustained action becomes apparent – rebellions that last longer than hours or days, and demonstrations that are more than dates on a calendar. The headlines tell us that our society is continually punctuated by brief outbursts and insurrections, only to return to the fragile equilibrium maintained by those in power. If a grassroots rebellion is to be successful, it must be born of a sustainable energy, and bring together the forces that could challenge oppressive systems by collaborating across divisions. It must be a tapestry of resistance in which “the community” and “the demonstrators” are one entity; in which allies engage in constant dialogue, and children play behind the barricades."
