What kind of growth and development can we imagine when we inject capital into low-income communities by helping local residents gain ownership of their homes and neighborhoods; and when we support local entrepreneurs, artists, and small business owners? THIS should be the new economy, one that is shared and accessible. Unfortunately, the Bay Area has transformed itself into an economy that excludes , and Los Angeles should strive to be just the opposite: That might mean we take a dip or two or three, and that might mean we primarily support low to medium-wage workers and the jobs that sustain them first, with job training, skill building, and support to follow: Los Angeles can learn a great deal from the Bay Area.

Los Angeles has the potential to truly be a world-class city. On her way there, L. We should shift the conversation away from being the highest income-generating, to instead imagining a Los Angeles that builds a new economy driven by the very needs of its most vulnerable populations: And although he has quieted down in recent years, many of us can still remember the vicious anger he expressed toward young leftists involved in the Occupy Wall Street movement.

  • Later we were forced to ask ourselves: Had he changed in some way? Had we been wrong about him? Did the problem with his later work and attitudes cast a shadow on the earlier work that we had enjoyed so much? And like Young, I also wonder if perhaps there might be hope that this artistic hero of my youth could redeem himself. Comedian Dennis Miller abandoned his smirky, left-leaning hipster libertarian act in order to embrace the excitement of the War on Terror and the policies of President George W.

    Wake up, pond scum.

      Returning Soldiers Speak

      It is tempting, given this track record, to dismiss Frank Miller completely. Young acknowledges this temptation to write off Miller early in his book. Explaining his project, he presents the reaction of a critical, imaginary reader:. Miller was celebrated for Daredevil and The Dark Knight Returns not because people were just stupider in the s or because only unsophisticated children read his stuff , but because he produced genuinely interesting, often groundbreaking work. For those unfamiliar with the character — or familiar with him only from the Netflix series — Daredevil is a superhero created by writer Stan Lee and artist Bill Everett in Though Murdock has lost his sight, the radiation has enhanced his other senses, making him able to hear and touch and smell the world far more acutely than an ordinary man.

      He does go to law school and become a successful lawyer. Perhaps early audiences were entranced by "Get Out" because the bar for social commentary on racial matters coming out of risk-aversive major studios is so low that anything at all is impressive. Truly this film's existence is more interesting than what is actually in it.

      While "Get Out" does make some interesting comments on the kinds of Stepford behavior the dominant culture enforces on minorities, white hypocrisy on race is not exactly a tough target, especially in a film that never makes audiences feel complicit in the characters' bad behavior. Would I have had all these aberrant, cranky reactions had I been in the first wave of "Get Out" viewers?

      Likely some, but not all: Being disappointed after exposure to all that praise was inescapably a factor. The message here is that waiting to see a film until everyone tells you it's amazing is not a recommended moviegoing strategy. Get there early or risk being sorry you are there at all.

      Clever horror-satire 'Get Out' is an overdue Hollywood response to our racial anxiety. The young are returning to theaters — but for these teens, is 'Baywatch' worth the time?
