		<description><![CDATA[Charles Blow has a must-read column in the New York Times, in which he foregoes characterizing for quoting. That is, rather than attributing attitudes to political figures like Romney, Gingrich, Ryan, et al, he simply quotes them. It&#8217;s devastating.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have noted before that the Phoenix Theater is an Indianapolis gem. Yesterday, attending its most recent offering, I was once again reminded why. Clybourne Park is a two-act play about a house, a neighborhood, and race. The first act takes place not long after the Korean War; the second, set in the same living [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Today is Martin Luther King Day. It&#8217;s an appropriate time to think about where the nation has been on issues of race&#8211;how far we&#8217;ve come, and how depressingly far we still have to go. I&#8217;m obviously not the only person who has been astonished and disheartened by the outpouring of overt racism that erupted in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We took our grandchildren to the Newseum today, and I would recommend it to anyone contemplating a trip to DC. It is a fabulous museum&#8211;not at all a dusty repository of newsprint, but an interactive, living testament to the practice of journalism. For our 8 and 10 year olds, there were numerous &#8220;games&#8221; and short [...]]]></description>

(The poll did not offer a breakdown between those who believe he&#8217;s Kenyan and those who don&#8217;t think Hawaii is part of the U.S.) The percentage of &#8220;birthers&#8221; was even [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In today&#8217;s political environment, a smart politician quickly learns that using the right language is more important than doing the right thing. In most cases, the electorate won&#8217;t know the difference, because the real business of government is done through that most boring, least-understood, least reported-on mechanism&#8212;the budget. If we really want to know what [...]]]></description>

At the eastern perimeter of the park, on a low fence constructed of railroad ties, three young African-American boys sat talking quietly.

In Greenwood, racist flyers were distributed on cars parked at the Greenwood Park Mall; in Carmel, anti-Semitic tracts were thrown on driveways in selected neighborhoods.
