Honestly I don't think you can. That being said it's not of huge importance to me. People need to take back their neighborhoods and cities. You can't want it for them.

Someone has to show them how and why before any action can be taken. Just because it's not of importance to you doesn't mean you don't walk by people affected by this on the streets every day. This is bigger than any one man. This would usher in a new era in civilization.

I don't believe in paternalism. The problem here is not that these communities have never been successful it is that we tampered with it. What we need to do is stop tampering. Let reality soak back into these communities. While I don't doubt the importance of this problem, this recognition of a problem does not make bound to try and solve it. Historically governmental solutions are almost always worse than the problem. As far as ushering in a new era of civilization, I have to disagree (stay with me here). You aren't talking about some new golden age but rather ushering in these communities back into America as a whole. Remove the systemic barriers and this should happen relatively on its own.
