After eight years of George Bushs America, we are at a critical juncture in our nations history, when we can put forth a new and bolder kind of democracy. Just as the Civil Rights Movement opened the doors for blacks and other people of color, for women, for the LGBT community, the rise of Barack Obama to the presidency and the postBush society we now encounter opens new possibilities for our democracy. And it also prompts us to reexamine from a new perspective the old issues around poverty, class, gender, and race. In other words, can the progressive multicultural coalition Barack Obama put together to win the presidency be translated into a progressive multicultural movement?Open Letters to America is writer Kevin Powells celebration of the sudden, mass political engagement of America's youth, and Americans in general; his thoughts in the aftermath of Obama's magical and historic presidential campaign; and his open acknowledgment that if 21stcentury America is going to be the great world democracy it promises to be, it will be Generations X and Y that make it so.
