What is needed at a minimum is health care coverage for all Americans.

The solution to hyper-segregation in K-12, the MPS board now realizes aloud, must be regional — not just within its own public school system but by motivating a regional army.

We can reopen the economy if we just be smart. Why so many behave otherwise is a question I’m afraid future generations will be asking many years from now.

I understand the argument that white Madison has failed to put its money where its mouth is and that comfortable older liberals secretly prefer the status quo.
