Tea Party conservatives engineered the current shutdown and default crisis with a dual purpose in mind - to dismantle the Affordable Care Act and defund the social safety net. The black community has borne the heaviest burden in the wake o f the standoff.

Moreover, the unemployment rate in black communities contin ues to hover in the double digits. A prolonged government shut down would have only exacerbated an already precarious situation for communities still reeling from the harsh, across the board sequester cuts imposed earlier this year. For all of the economic chaos and destruction the shutdown caused, it has made one thing crystal clear — we need a functioning government that protects the social safety net. Compromising on our long-term stability and balancing the budget on the backs of our community is not an option. Rashad Robinson Executive Director o f ColorofCharge.org Not in My Backyard I have heard that people who live in condos cheat on their taxes and keep money in offshore accounts. I have heard that people who live in condos hire escorts and own unregistered firearms and snort cocaine. I have heard that people who live in condos beat their spouses and abuse their children. I have heard that people who live in condos eat bulk supermarket food without paying for it. I have heard that people who live in condos laugh at comedians whose jokes end in punchlines about homeless people. I have heard that people who live in condos hunt homeless people in the woods for sport on weekends (a most dangerous game). I have heard that people who live in condos are one huge medical bill or stock market crash from living in the streets. What kind of neighbors are these? I suggest that to protect our friends in the houseless community, people who live in condos should be relocated to a leaf recycling area somewhere in northeast Portland, or under a bridge, but definitely not in my backyard.
