However, there are millions of others who are not white men living in the same despair. I think we all need to understand that so many of us are suffering in our own ways and that we are not each other's enemies.

The real enemy is the wealthy 1% who are keeping us all down and do not care one bit how much the majority of the people in this country are living in desperation. Not only financially, but emotionally as well, because of this sense that we are not all "winners" and that we continue to become downwardly mobile because of their greed, creating a sense of desperation.
