Note:  I am White, American and Female and this last video strikes close to my heart.  The situations portrayed look a lot like the home that I grew up in --- and many of the homes around me - some belonging to extended family members.  This in Unpstate New York... 

Tell Me:  "When does Jesus Bring the Porkchops?" (George Carlin) to those that are truly in need????? 

Isn't it about [We are really in need of some activism on our own behalf!] time?
