We're just paying more attention now. And even that isn't the "seismic shift" we all want it to be. Paying attention and actually acting, are two very different things. That's why Jesus didn't say "Think nice thoughts about your neighbor," but said: "Love your neighbor." Actions speak louder than words.Giuliani's 1993 campaign had a familiar "law & order" message designed to attract White voters in Queens and S.I. Crime in NYC began its decline under Dinkins. Giuliani never gave him credit for that. The police riot was in protest of a review board for police misconduct. https://t.co/hMCjI6uMK8

"...doesn't philosophy amount to the sum of all thinkable and unthinkable errors, ceaselessly repeated?"--Jean-Luc Marion
