Screenplay Liberty City

This story takes place in the 1960's; is it relevant today, in the Twenty-First Century? I believe so, because this story isn't just about a predominantly black ghetto in Miami but something I consider much more Machiavellian; for you could move the story ahead to today and you would still see the same grinding poverty in Liberty City. The story could have been set in Techwood, the country's oldest government housing project, in Atlanta, until they kicked out all the poor residents, in 1996, so they could remodel it and sell all the apartments, or it could have been set in Overtown, another Miami ghetto, or Watts, in L.A., or Bed-Sty., in New York, or N.E. Washington, D.C. or any of the hundreds of others in this country, for the United States has extraordinary wealth, and it also has extraordinary poverty: poverty that is as senseless as it is useless and which could disappear overnight but for the senseless selfishness and greed of those in power.
