Discuss 'Come Home, America' by William Greider

I just listened to an interview by Amy Goodman of Mr Greider. This interview was sandwiched between one with Senator Russ Feingold and an interview with a young boy who was pleading for the return of his mother who had been deported to Mexico.

I am thankful for the hope that Mr. Greider holds out for a reformation that must happen if our laws and resulting behaviors will truly provide a safe and healthy "home" existing in a world of other "homes".

Perhaps a more thorough examination of just how and why our "framework" of values developed and how our assumptions have failed to shine a light on the

ways in which our so-called "national values" have been applied.

I look forward to reading the book, "Come Home America". Having lived almost 77 years, my limited perspective of the world comes from my own experiences and from others with whom I have shared this time. It is always a comeuppance to

encounter another view of the world from a contemporary and even more startling is someone who seems to have so little awareness of the web of history that surrounds us at all times.
