Actions Speak Loudest -- We live in the wealthiest, most advanced nation in the world. We have the resources- both financial and human, the technology, and the determination to do whatever we want. We have put men in space, defeated time and distance in communications, and yet we are still hindered by basic fundamental issues that gravely affect our children. The wealthiest nation in the world should have the healthiest children in the world, yet we do not. The most advanced nation in the world should produce the most intelligent and prepared children in the world, yet we do not. The country with the brightest future should be prepared to leave as its legacy a world better than the one we found, yet we will not. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDEST captures these issues with thirty instances of a poignant photograph and moving essay of one thousand words written by renowned and respected contributors, from Jeffrey Sachs to Rachael Ray. There is hope, as we have the power, the resources, and the means to create a meaningful and fair today and a promising tomorrow for all of our children. This book will address approximately thirty issues ranging from the disintegration of the American family to the myriad of issues affecting our educational system. Each essay will be written by one of a variety of contributors spanning all walks of life and fields of work. Imagine a modern day Let Us Now Praise Famous Men featuring a clear design, comprised of moving essays by the likes of Jeff Sachs, Mia Hamm, and Geoffrey Canada, and with a resounding call to action for the reader. At the end of each chapter, a page entitled “actions speak louder…” will be dedicated to how readers can become involved and make a difference in the aforementioned issues.
