The last section of the course is called false restarts. There's a pattern in our history where we take three steps forward and then we take two steps back. - Jon Fortt
That might be emancipation and then botched reconstruction of civil rights. The approach to multiculturalism that was bussing, that led to protests and didn't completely work. - Jon Fortt
It's still progress. So don't be completely flattened by this. But this has happened again and again. - Jon Fortt
We're in the two steps back portion of the movie.
