Making A Difference: Reflecting On The Past, Thinking Of The Future

Whether it is in his own backyard or in Nepal, James L. Hecht has skillfully devoted time to improving living conditions for millions of people. Learn how this former DuPont executive made a difference. Hecht authored his first book in 1970, Because It Is Right: Integration in Housing, based on his experience as president of a fair housing group. The book was widely used by fair housing groups throughout the country and led to an important Supreme Court decision. Making a Difference isn't simply about Hecht's impressive accomplishments. Hecht is an astute political observer and activist. His decades of experience interacting with different political institutions have made him a passionate advocate for a variety of important issues facing Americans today, such as national security, health care, taxation, affirmative action, international aid work, gun ownership, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Neither conservative nor liberal, Hecht presents informed opinions and new ways of thinking about specific issues for the betterment of the country as a whole.
