    We miseducated a generation of young people to, like, start cupcake companies that give back when they see a problem. But the Trump era is waking them up to actual, public-spirited change. @hari put me through my paces on the great new @AmanpourCoPBS.http://www.pbs.org/wnet/amanpour-and-company/video/anand-giridharadas/ …

        Also, I love belonging to a country where a brown guy can interview a brown guy on television about his criticisms of the richest, most powerful people in the society, on a show hosted by a woman who replaced, um, Charlie Rose.

        I think we easily forget what a precious, precarious achievement makes the above fact possible.

        If my firm has a trillion dollar marketcapitalization, pays almost no taxes, and the CEO pledges $2B in philanthropic support why is their applause.? Citizens are left to fill in the shortfall of a regressive tax structure.

        I’d never thought about it as being “rich people’s scraps” but, yeah, that’s what it is, great listening to you

        I agree partly, but I don't see this as a progression. It's a return to Victorian values, like we saw in Dickens, with rich folk determining who to aid & who belongs to the "undeserving poor." Which is why, for 50 yrs, drugs used by PoC have been penalized more than white drugs.
