Although, I disagree with some of the comments made in this documentary, I believe that, in general it captures the reality of our two party system. One that is portrayed as the conservative party and the other as the liberal, however, this report shows that they are both about the same thing, making money for corporations. Clearly our traditional two party options are not working for the interest of the people of this land or the world. We need to look for alternatives that look at the interest of the people of the world, and not at lining their pockets with money. Check it out and share.

Race: The Power of an Illusion
I know I have shared this before but I truly believe that this is a grate resource to get the conversation going on racism in America: Race: The Power of an Illusion: What is this thing we call race? Where did the idea come from? “Race: The Power of an Illusion” investigates race in society, science, and history.
