Ron:
This would not surprise me if true.
Mel:
Secondly, although on paper the civil rights era
began big-time in the 1950's the true fruit is only
a couple or so decades old, when the majority
of African-American/Black/Negro (depending on the
generational terminology over those years) left
their traditional position of monolithic-economic-
underclass and moved into the middle class.
Rocketed upward, really...the dynamics of economy.
As to MoQ providing a 'fix', I am a bit skeptical.
Not of its power as a major shift in point of view,
but of the ability to transmit it, educate, and spread
it among a society committed to status quo. It'll
take two or three generations at least.
Practically speaking,
How do we get folks to: read the books?
understand the content?
act on it?
engage in appropriate realignment of sensibilities?
(a few dozen folks on this forum can't seem to agree)
Ron:
We seem to be coming together more now than ever here
and there seems to be a momentum building on our side
(baby steps)
I think this thread has pulled itself out of it's rituals and is
now onto some serious original dialog.
I say we keep it going.

Ron,
Small point of thought...
You stated that :
"Remember slavery was abolished about 150 yrs
ago in the U.S. and civil rights in the last 50, I would
think it would be difficult break from subcultural values
of anti-establishment after hundreds of years of
development."
Mel:
Remember, that abolition was merely of the legal
institution of slavery. Some estimate the
number of 'effective slaves' at nearly the same or
even higher numbers than what existed in pre-
abolition America. I have just started researching
it for a story, and I admit to some skepticism, as
to specific numbers, but not to the reality of this
sordid underground. (mostly non-black, now)
