Having been active in civil rights since the day as a very young man I witnessed MLK make his Dream Speech, my concern here is that the goals indicated are quite appropriate but fails to include even mention of impoverished white families, entrepreneurs and workers as well, many of whom feel ignored in the overhwhelming attention elsewhere.
