What does happen is left to fringe radicals, of which I am one, that often do stupid things that marginalize us even further. Instead of change from within, we look to Obama, who works with the system (our collective boss), for that change. It's just another excuse not to act. Even Katrina didn't wake us up. It's infuriating. No wonder I'm moving to Europe!

But I can't help it - I agree with you. Injustice of any sort needs to be exposed in the light of day so that everyone can see it and take action against it.

Rather, I'm glad to see people fighting the good fight. Makes me think there's hope for humanity yet. It never even occurred to me that some would see an activist's blog as depressing.
