Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson urged struggling communities to reject racial division and political manipulation, in favor of national unity, Thursday on “Fox & Friends.”
Carson announced the opening of the first “EnVision Center” in Detroit, to assist families in their fight to become self-sufficient and said the only way America can compete on a global scale is to help the less fortunate.
“There’s a verse in the Bible that says without a vision the people perish. And there are a lot of people who really don’t have a vision — have become somewhat hopeless and just doesn’t think — they don’t think life is going to be great to them,” Carson said. “There are actually a lot of resources in our society and a lot of people with very good hearts who would love to do things, but there is not a mechanism to do it. So what we’re doing is bringing in juxtaposition the resources to the need. And this is going to be done in communities throughout the country.”
