A memoir that is simultaneously intensely personal and universal. It exposes how the vulnerable are short changed by the systems in our society. For example, the injustices that take place daily in our legal system. The educational system with its low expectation of far too many children. The health care system that misdiagnoses a patient. And the welfare system that degrades the broken person even further. The very systems that are supposed to be helping people–far too often cause more harm then good–and, in turn causes more harm to our entire society. Dancing Around the Cracks is written to bring together those who have always had a vision of a more fair and just society. The time to make that happen is now. The deterioration of leaves us no other choice. We need to bring justice into the Hall of Justice by reforming the abuses taking place daily in American courts beginning with the Divorce Court. Once we have justice put into our Justice system we can work toward reforming all the other systems that are broken. For the good of our society we need to act now.
