Social Justice Matters - July 2008
Written by Tom Parsons   
Monday, 30 June 2008 17:00
Concern for Social Justice is at the very heart of the Broomfield Democratic Party. We work to ensure that we elect those who adhere to the principles of fairness, equality, honesty, and transparency.

Although vigilant here at home, our Social Justice concerns go beyond the politics of Broomfield. They extend to the politics of our state government, and to those of our nation and beyond. The potential is there throughout our daily lives to have an impact on the lives of others whom we will never meet. It has been said that an injustice suffered by one, is an injustice suffered by all.

Although our focus starts at home, our Social Justice concerns go beyond the boundaries of Broomfield. There are no boundaries, whether geographic or cultural, which limit their scope. Our choices made in a Broomfield store can, in many instances, have a Social Justice Impact in a far away country. Example? It could be a Fair Trade commodity purchased on 120th Avenue. One that contributes to the economic stability of a coffee farming cooperative in Central America that provides a living wage for its member workers and practices sustainable farming techniques that help preserve the rain forest that, in turn, affects global weather. Who’d have thought that a cup of coffee could have that effect!

This column will be a regular feature in future editions, intended to contribute to raising the collective consciousness of our Party about any and all matters concerning Social Justice. The greater our understanding as to what Social Justice encompasses, the better we are positioned as Democrats to make a positive contribution. Our hope is that this column we will contribute to expand our understanding.
Towards this end we welcome – actually, encourage – participation by any member: ideas for future columns, recommendations for research on issues, and contributions from those who would like to collaborate on a column, or write one. Don’t be shy. You have important thoughts to share with others in our Party, or you wouldn’t be reading this.
 
Thoughts On Independence Day
Written by Tom Parsons   
Monday, 30 June 2008 17:00

Although only a child during WW II, I knew what patriotism was back then. We all did. It was patriotic to sacrifice for the war. All citizens were expected to make sacrifices and to step boldly to the plate when called upon to do so. Gasoline was rationed. As were sugar, butter and other food “luxuries” - all willingly given up for the consumption of those actually fighting overseas. We recycled all things metal; not to save the planet, but to save Western civilization as we knew it to be. To varying degrees we were all engaged in fighting the war.
