Everyone has, more about on the tips of their tongues and in the breath from their lips this great and interesting word….CHANGE. With unemployment rates on a constant rise, discount concerns surrounding the quality education of our youth, order and very real issues of funding shortfalls for many of the organizations that serve this community, we must find a way to navigate CHANGE. We are beginning to design and craft a plan to help us at the Greater Toledo Urban League address some of these issues. So the question is….What does CHANGE really mean to Toledo and this region?
As a life long resident of Toledo, I have seen the city from a lower middle class perspective remain in the “ICE AGE”. Of liberal conservative BS my whole file. Used up blue collar workers now tossed to the side. Have a chance to see how the rest of us have faired in the “glass city”. No concern for the impoverished inner “Central City” areas, have resulted in decay and abandonment for decades. Cities like Toledo now lay in ruins after big business has pulled the rug from under the feet of it’s workers. The middle class in Toledo has learned a powerful lesson. “do not forget the poor and less fortune, create opportunity when and where you can” Because it is you who will need the “hand up” in the future. The wealthy have no concept. of poor. It is the JOB of the middle class to petition the wealthy, to create opportunity. (not hand outs). But when the middle class begin to blame the poor for their condition, it is this attitude that creates a vacuum for poverty to exsist in. In an attempt to live the “goodlife” to middle class as squandered it buying power emulating the wealthy. And have created envy and distain from both the poor and the wealthy, the poor have no sympathy for those who forced us to watch them parade in things they could not afford. The wealthy have no sympathy for the middle class buying things they could not pronounce and living in places where in wealthy have “a way of doing things”. So in closing middle class IT seems that you have forgot the poor, But we have not forgotten you, and we welcome you back to the ghettos you abandonded with open arms.
