“changing the wind”
http://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2007/12/changing-wind.html
Based on the comments of Jim Wallis on
Speaking of Faith, November 29, 2007
http://speakingoffaith.publicradio.org/programs/jimwallis/index.shtml
He was talking about whether to change politicians
or change the wind, to change the public opinion
which guides politics. He used the example
of President Johnson’s statement to the
Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. that it would
take 5 years for a voting rights bill but
it actually took 5 months to pass the Voting Rights Act,
after the March in Selma.
