I’ve watched Treme and have seen the lack of help New Orleans received post-Katrina.
I don’t care who it is, where it is, or why it is, but we need to help people.
New Orleans still needs us. Our ghettos need us. Grand Rapids needs us. Ottawa Hills High School needs us.
The Philippines need us. It doesn’t seem like we put enough pressure on our leaders anymore. Our parents did their time in the 60’s – we have to send some sort of message ourselves now that we give a fuck about what matters. Apathy kills.
This is what inspired me to write this:
What am I doing to help? Hopefully getting some rich snarfs who can help off their ass.
………..the rest of us already have our marching orders……we just need somebody to give us a lift to the front……..the Home front………and it can be anywhere folks…so help those people in the Philippines …..our complex is collecting food and personal items to send there thru the church and community chest so pitch in ……..another hand on the rope always helps the pull.
