The latest steps taken by the Department of Justice regarding Arizona’s SB 1070 constitutes a march towards civil unrest in court but it also represents the growing gap between what the majority of Americans think and the directives coming from this administration. Truthfully, if we were able to see the same passion from the federal […]
Everyone wanted to talk about racism and tokenism during the Tea Parties. Everyone also seemed to overlook progress in the midst of protests last week. It seemed like every time one turned around, there was a story, a quote, or a mention of Tea Party racism coming from the media or from water cooler conversations […]

Everyday Americans must know in our hearts that government is for the people, not the other way around.
