An obvious correction to this from late last night before I went to bed: Mondainé of course right there in the op-ed itself mentions holding an event Thursday night, which indeed was held right there on the steps of the Justice Center. Nonetheless, the thrust of my point remains stuck in my craw: public, on-the-streets pressure is the only thing that’s going to create the environment in which anything can happen in boardrooms and backrooms. Maybe there’s a plan to shift the ongoing protests in a direction Mondainé thinks would be better; I don’t know. The op-ed certainly doesn’t suggest this is the case, as it effectively calls for an end to the demonstrations.
