B-roll from a meeting of the Alliance for Economic Justice on Massachusetts budget cuts and welfare proposals. A woman speaks at the meeting on the poor treatment of the elderly. A man says the tax cuts will benefit the white suburbs, not the urban minorities. A state official addresses a crowd, asking for the people to give the government a chance to perform before criticizing. A man speaks against Governor Dukakis's proposed economic plans. Another man speaks against State Senator Kelly. Mix of silent and sound.
