Footprints of Injustice

It is clear to see the footprints of injustice all over the playing field of democracy. The question is what do we do? Can we formulate liberating ideologies from minds that are imprisoned? Imprisoned by lies forced to suffer life sentences of disillusionment. We must be willing to move beyond the tangled webs of apathy and embrace a vision of freedom by any means. This means relinquishing the tight grip that we have on the "American Dream" and recognizing that struggle can never be synonymous with the status quo. Let us challenge the structural prisons that confine the life chances of so many. Sadly, there is a realization that most will not embrace the path of revolution, but we simply allow for the limited confines of conformity to define their existence. However, I believe that life should be more and we should agate until this is reality. Let's Get Free!

  1. Agreed. So what’s next? Where does the work start? How do we establish community, communication and change? How do we change the ideologies of people teaching our young boys and girls to reject, and not be compliant? We have established that a revolution must happen. Where do we go from here? All of these great thinkers, but we always get stuck here.

  2. I think it is normal for us to teach our young people to reject of flawed system. The question is what do we teach them to aspire to as opposed to simple rejection of a broken system. It starts with raising their IQ so that they can then embrace what we are asking of them. To become revolutionaries and to get involved with organization and movements that are fundamentally trying to change the American system and not simply to try to find their place.
