Priorities

True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring. ~M.L. King, Jr., cited by Norman Solomon and Jeff Cohen, “The Martin Luther King You Don’t See on TV,” 4/4/07, www.alternet.org/story/50101/, via Gene and Joyce Marshall

This article says the media denounced King at the last for putting forth the priorities of poverty and peace. For 2007, Solomon and Cohen put forth priorities of “poverty, education, health care, and environmental cleanup.” What is your list of 2007 priorities? ~jpc

Let us think and pray. Namaste.
