The Revolution Will Not Be Funded. Dr. Larry James of Central Dallas Ministries lays out the facts about wealth and poverty, the business climate and the carcinogens, the productivity of the economy and the stinginess of social programs, in TX. His metrics include holding one another, our community, and our institutions "accountable on these matters of life and decline." To a commenter who baits Larry by asking if the revolution will have a body count (other than the poor dying on the streets), Larry responds, "The 'revolution' I spoke to involves integrity, action, resolve and courage linked to the day-to-day hard work of engaging the poor, as well as the forces that keep too many in that state." I guess TX really is backward. Larry has not gotten the memo saying that the social justice movement died 40 years ago last Friday with MLK.
