Kudos to our own Timbre Wolf singer/songwriter/videoeditor. Great lyrics! Great mashup!

Some opinions on what to expect from the economic crisis:

"Communities of color are going to be hit harder than the white, middle-class community. Families of color are three times more likely to be steered into a subprime mortgage. Contrary to what you hear in some media accounts, these people were not choosing subprime mortgages because they did not qualify for other loans. There was a great deal of racial profiling going on. For instance, Harvard did a study that looked at subprime lending in 2004 and again in 2007. They found that high-income African Americans were more likely to be directed toward subprime loans than low-income whites."

"There has always been a problem for children who live in extreme poverty. With the foreclosure and housing crisis, it's going to affect a new group of people who never imagined that they would be in this situation."
