Race Matters



A few articles on racism.

The first discusses police brutality on the black population. I'm not discounting the fact that the police have a high stress job but it seems like once a week when I want the local news another Chicago officer has shot and killed someone. It seems to be all too common. Also, the shooting of Diallo that the article discusses is chronicled in a Springsteen song, "41 Shots."


Still Shooting At Us.


The second article is about the health care issue in this country. I know this is a much discussed issue but we haven't done anything about it and until we do, it will only get worse. Now is a perfect time to address this problem.
