Roseland on Chicago's South Side, black poverty and Obama
01/18/2009
A sense that the earlier dedication to helping Roseland and places like it that need a special kind of help is missing from the President. Obama's advisers speak of inclusiveness and helping all minorities and the working class, yet while the stimulus helped the economy after the financial crisis, the lack of help to millions of homeowners facing foreclosure worsened the situation for minorities and the struggling middle class.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
