"While Democracy Sleeps" at Yale University, Jamestown Project

I had the great pleasure of attending the first panel of the Jamestown Project at Yale Univeristy. The title of the panel was "While Democracy Sleeps".

Cornel West was on the 5 person panel including another very impressive Princeton University professor, Eddie Glaude. Both Prof. West and Glaude are brilliant speakers who avoke the memories of Dr. King and other great preachers. I found myself glued to every word of Prof. West and motivated by his ideas.

My appreciation of Prof. West's words has inspired me to create a page on my Blog devoted to Cornel West and Eddie Glaude, two prolific thinkers on racial and religious issues.

I was encouraged to see a group dealing in real terms with racism and social injustice.
