Mr. Dane Smith is a repeat guest on our show. He is a gifted observer and commenter on current affairs in our state and nation. On March 27, 2015, he published an article in the Star Tribune: “An of-the-moment idea: ‘Equity'” [here]. Alan Miller and Dane Smith have a lively discussion exploring the term and its meaning for politics, economy, education and many others facets of life.
In the last few seconds of the show, Dane Smith quoted a central idea about Equity and in case you missed it, here it is:
And if we’re looking for inspiration on the equity theme, we can look to the young people of color organizing for justice today, or to the old, dead white men who advanced the cause of equity against fierce opposition in their own time. Here’s a gem from the 18th-century statesman Edmund Burke, a member of the English Parliament who sympathized with the American Revolution and its egalitarian ideals.
“There is but one law for all, namely that law which governs all law, the law of our Creator, the law of humanity, justice, equity — the law of nature and of nations.”
