The Price We Pay is Too High...
The majority of Americans are paying
a high price to maintain a society that encourages inequality,
abuse of power, and unfair privilege. It's time to join together
and demand a better deal.

Why is it Important to Understand the Political
Right?
Particularly since the early 1970s, the political
Right has successfully reframed a whole series of issues
in a way that has moved federal and state governments
toward an increasing level of repression; and society
toward accepting more social oppression. While successfully
establishing their framework the political Right has
managed to hide its own role in the process. What this
means is that even as the arguments of the political
Right have become widely accepted, the way it actually
created this situation has been overlooked. Many "average
Americans," mainly middle class Whites, now simply
accept arguments for repressive measures and oppressive
systems as "common sense."
