Not to muddy the waters here...

But could we talk about class issues in this discussion? Specifically, using class as a way to bridge the racial gap in politics? I'm interested in hearing (reading) people's thoughts on this.

It's interesting to me that right before Dr. King died that he started addressing poverty (and class) issues, but it seems that most of the thinkers/social activists/politicians in the United States were quick to let this issue fall by the wayside. I'm of the mind that if we could get a cross-racial/cross-cultural coaltion together to address the ways in which class affects people's personal choices, morality, and yes, their access to resources, we might actually begin to make some headway.

Thoughts?
