Of “Epic Foolishness” And Epic Fails
Bob Herbert’s latest New York Times column, "Our Epic Foolishness," could (and perhaps should) serve as the introduction to a book about how America got into the various messes we’re in — from the ongoing ecological disaster in the Gulf, to the unrepentant and un-remedied recklessness of Wall Street, and beyond. Herbert, a featured speaker at America’s Future Now!, deftly puts into context the considerable crises facing the country, hitting the high (or, perhaps, low) points of a long, depressing story that still more voices would tell in greater detail.
It is the story of a great nation whose people for too long placed the reins of government in the hands of those who did not — and do not — "believe in" government, and left the public interest in the care of people whose primary interest was– and remains — profit.

HuffPost College Meets Campus Progress: Your Ultimate Platform
In many ways, HuffPost College is a portal to the future — we feature stories on what students are doing, thinking, feeling, seeing, wanting and where they might be going. The news for students this year has not been good. But despite the tides against them, America’s youth are ambitious, restless and optimistic. They want a lot, and they want it sooner rather than later, no matter what the economy, the job market or anything else dictates.
Beyond the studies and surveys and reports that show these waves of change, though, the best testimony of what matters to college students comes from straight from YOU. We heard you — and the nearly 150,000 of you who voted — in April when we partnered with the White House for an open chat about student loan reform. And now, we’re excited to join forces with Campus Progress for their College Keynote Address Contest.

The Reverend Jesse Louis Jackson, Sr., founder and president of the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, is one of America’s foremost civil rights, religious and political figures. Over the past forty years, he has played a pivotal role in virtually every movement for empowerment, peace, civil rights, gender equality, and economic and social justice.
Reverend Jackson has been called the “Conscience of the Nation” and “the Great Unifier,” challenging America to be inclusive and to establish just and humane priorities for the benefit of all. He is known for bringing people together on common ground across lines of race, culture, class, gender and belief.
