Red, White, and Oh So Blue A Memoir of a Political Depression

Addressed to compassionate readers who feel traumatized by the news & suffer election-year blues. Identifies our national dependency on the quick fixÓ habit -- that of electing politicians who promise pain-free solutions & then wait for miracles. Genuine relief depends on thoughtful citizens reviewing assumptions about how we do business, raise children, respond to threats, educate ourselves, & treat our poor. She urges the politically depressed to shed our innocence about how our political, military, business, family, & religious practices have compromised national life, & draw inspiration from the social justice movements of our past.Blakely, Mary Kay is the author of 'Red, White, and Oh So Blue A Memoir of a Political Depression' with ISBN 9780788166198 and ISBN 0788166190.
