Why do we always see
minorities suffering when we
view environmental
disasters on our
T.V.’s from our living
rooms? Because the
minorities have always
been relegated to those
vulnerable and unwanted
areas like Indians
relegated to barren
reservations?
Will it always be
that way or, perhaps,
through the egalitarianism
of global warming, the blacks
and browns and maybe even
the reds at the Four Corners
and Wounded Knee know
something about karma
and the future of places
like Naples, Florida when
you see them
smile?
Can you tread water, Ke mo sabe?
