“My career has been very strange. My career is like a heart monitor. I get involved in a good project now and then to keep things going. And then I make things that I work on that I hope are going to be good so I can make a living and keep a roof over the heads of those little monsters I have in my house.” HeartLittlesHas BeensI CanHouseCareersStrangeInvolvedProjectsBe GoodMonstersNow And ThenRoofGet Involved Author:Michael Madsen

“A faith project in Christian artistry will never be healthy among us until there is a living sense of Christian community, and the misplaced emphasis on the 'individual' has been corrected.

“And every historic effort to forge a democratic project has been undermined by two fundamental realities: poverty and paranoia. The persistence of poverty generates levels of despair that deepen social conflict the escalation of paranoia produces levels of distrust that reinforce cultural division. Rae is the most explosive issue in American life precisely because it forces us to confront the tragic facts of poverty and paranoia despair, and distrust. In short, a candid examination of race matters takes us to the core of the crisis of American democracy (p. 107).” Has BeensTwoMatterFactsRealityForceSocialLevelsEffortRacePovertyDemocracyIssuesProduceConflictDespairProjectsCrisisFundamentalsDemocraticCorePersistenceTragicDivisionDistrustHistoricExaminationParanoiaAmerican LifeExplosivesCandidAmerican DemocracyEscalation Book:Race Matters: With a New Introduction Source: Race Matters: With a New Introduction
