What has been happening in the U.S. since 2000 has been the resurgence into the open of the white supremacy that has always been at the core of this country's spirit. The efforts of Emerson, Whitman, Melville, Thoreau, James Baldwin, Malcolm and Martin to re-invent America were Herculean, but they failed. In the period from 1965 to 1975, a rising generation of American youth tried to “march to the beat of a different drummer,” but they too failed. They failed because of the worm deep in the core of the American apple. Robert Bellah named this worm back in the 1970’s “The Broken Covenant.” No one reads his book anymore because we’re all too busy trying to make America great again.



Malcolm reached out to a larger world and paid for it with his life.

Still, a dream, a mythos persists in the face of the overwhelming facts of history.

Tell them, Ray.
