Equality

At the risk of this turning into a TV blog, Channel 5 ran an interesting show this evening.

"Big Ideas the Changed the World" was about the idea of equality. The show was written and presented by Jesse Jackson. Rev. Jackson started by stating that his ideas about equality were firmly rooted in the teaching of Jesus. He then went on to chart a history of Black Americans, and finished by briefly looking at other areas and issues around equality.
It was a timely programme, with all the stuff about the 200 anniversary of the abolition of the slave trade laws, and the day before the 39th Anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King.
One quote:
"Those in power always find some one to justify a have/have not system"
