Abstract

Comment

The author presents his views on behalf of a person whom he calls "Ginsburg," who is satisfied to remain Ginsburg, who is content to live in the community where he is, who has a little business there and is satisfied to make a living out of it, who has a son, or sons, in the armed services fighting for the country that he thought afforded him equality, rather than tolerance. Now when Ginsburg is confronted with open assaults upon his children, when he finds that his own place of worship is the subject of vandalism, his first contact is with what agency of government? It is with the police. And the author suggests that the indoctrination of the American police in the cities with democracy is one of primary importance. Now, his second contact is with the schools, which his children attend. The author suggests that people need a crusade to teach the schools something about the practice of democracy in action.
