Some questions for LeBron James: 1. What exactly is your definition of “systemic racism” and in what systems does it exist? Everywhere? The NBA? In the neighborhoods where you own multi-million dollar estates? 2. Why don’t you live in communities you claim to care about, rather than presumably systemically racist communities? 3.

At the very end of REDISCOVERING AMERICANISM
At the very end of REDISCOVERING AMERICANISM (June 27, 2017), I closed my book with the following statement: “[T]hose of us whose eyes are open, whatever our numbers, have a moral obligation to try to rouse our fellow citizens to take a sober and critical look at the decaying societal conditions, from which truthful conclusions…… MORE
From Rediscovering Americanism, quoting John Dewey
From Rediscovering Americanism, pp. 70 – 71, quoting John Dewey, 1916, Democracy and Education.
