A Change for a Change

Here is a link to a lecture given by the philosopher and social activist Cornel West. Nothing to do with fiction, but Dr. West is one of my favorite human beings. In this speech at the Lannan Foundation, he talks about social justice around the world, and the US role in social justice. If we take some of his talking points and apply them to current situations in some parts of Africa, we might be able to call ourselves a better country for doing so.
