The forward progress of society is not automatic and should not be taken for granted. The assassination President John F. Kennedy in 1963 ended his effort to deploy American prestige, power to forward progressive change worldwide. Today, there are political forces seeking to stop progressive social, political, economic change.

The brutality, violence, viciousness, racism (dystopia) of authoritarianism is becoming more and more the hallmark of world politics.
