Editorial Review
“I have a dream” said MLK - but who’s living it now? A see-no-color crowd that breaks pita bread in this glass-walled eatery the size of Sears. The armchair revolution will be televised on LCD and from real armchairs. Suggestive Afro art titillates Howard University intelligentsia and dreadlocked politicos swarm a bookstore of manifestos. Named after local hero Langston Hughes, with biggest caloric bang for the poor poet’s buck. Highest per capita human/laptop ratio in the city.
