NO DIFFERENCE
Small as a peanut,
Big as a giant,
We’re all the same size
When we turn off the light.
Rich as a sultan,
Poor as a mite,
We’re all worth the same
When we turn off the light.
Red, black or orange,
Yellow or white,
We all look the same
When we turn off the light
So maybe the way
To make everything right
Is for God just reach out
And turn off the light!
(Where the Sidewalk Ends, the poems and drawings of Shel
Silverstein. New York, Harper Collins Publishers, 1974)

The End of Poverty
Equality is a very big idea, connected to
freedom, but an idea doesn’t come for free. In a world
where distance no longer determines who your
neighbor is, paying the price for equality is not just heart,
it’s smart. The destinies of the “haves” are intrinsically
linked to the fates of the “have-nothing-at-alls”. If we
didn’t know this already, it became too clear on
September 11, 2001. Africa is not the front line in the
war against terror, but it soon could be.
“The war against terror is bound up in the war
against poverty.” Who said that? Not me. Not some
beatnik peace group. Secretary of State Colin Powell.
And when a military man starts talking like that perhaps
we should listen. In tense, nervous times isn’t it cheaper
– and smarter – to make friends out of potential enemies
than to defend yourself against them?
We could be the first generation to outlaw the
kind of extreme, stupid poverty that sees a child die of
hunger in a world of plenty, or of a disease preventable
by a twenty-cent inoculation. We are the first generation
that has enough power to do that. The first generation
that is powerful enough to unknot the whole tangle of
bad trade, bad debt, and bad luck. The first generation
that can end a corrupt relationship between the powerful
and the weaker parts of the world which has been so
wrong for so long.
If the rich nations decided they could become
slightly “poorer”, they would truly help the nations in
need. If they agreed to write off the old debts of the poor
countries, the whole world would be safer. This year
millions of people gathered to persuade world leaders
to invest more in fighting poverty and disease in Africa.
We cannot save energy life. But the ones we
can, we must. It is – or it ought to be – unacceptable that
an accident of longitude determines whether a child
lives or dies. Fifteen thousand people dying needlessly
every day from AIDS, TB, and malaria. Behind each of
these statistics is someone’s daughter, someone’s son,
a mother, a father, a sister, a brother.
This is Africa’s crisis. That it’s not on the nightly
news, that we do not treat this as an emergency – that’s
our crisis.
(adapted from Bono’s foreword to the End of Poverty, Jeffrey Sachs,
Penguin Press, and “This is Generation’s Moon Shot”, by Bono in
Time)
