Summary
This is the inherent strength of [Bill Cosby]'s message and the weakness of those that would shout him down. Cosby is saying to people-the very people progressives claim to be protecting-that they have power, that the changes they seek begin with the choices they make. Indeed, Cosby points out that it is adherence to the traditional mores of family, faith and idealism that made us strong, that provided the soldiers of character and conscience that fought and won the civil rights battles of the '50s and '60s. Moreover, these same values will provide the moral and cultural foundation for the warriors of the next generation.
During Cosby's recent appearance on "Meet the Press," he was clear: "No matter your economic status, no matter your age, no matter your race, no matter your gender, no matter your religion many families in tight-knit communities are crumbling at an alarming rate. We need to see this as a reality, not something to just talk about but to act on." To imagine progress is possible without individual initiative is folly.
