I think everyone knows our country is in trouble. Most politicians and civic leaders alike agree that we desperately need to put differences aside and work hard to get us out of this mess.  Everybody, it seems, except Republican Congressmen and a certain far right talk show host I’ll mention later. To set the record straight, I consider myself a-political.  Some strong conservatives call... 

In our last installment, we discussed some positive signs in the race relations situation. I have now graduated from college and am hanging around Raleigh, taking courses and working for the Raleigh Recreation Department in preparation for graduate school in the fall.  This was the summer of 1963, called by some the “long hot summer,” or by others, the summer the police turned around. To... 

What’s going on in Gaza…Same as usual just more intense. Israel expanded its most lethal air offensive to date (some 300 air strikes since midday Saturday) against Gaza’s Hamas leaders yesterday. The successful attacks dolled out more damage than ever before, making rubble out of parts of the city. They are amassing what appears to be a large ground force attack as well  Read More →

In our last submission, I was attending a Southern institution of higher learning that was ahead of its time in that it did admit some African Americans, allowed them almost equal rights with their white(and asian and middle eastern counter-parts), even though all other surrounding schools were strictly segregated, as was the town of Raleigh, NC, where the college was located.  Read More →

Blatant & Latent Racism in North Carolina & the Midwest Previously, we had discussed racial perceptions in affluent suburbs of Chicago during and after WWII.  It is perhaps well to realize that at this point in history, the armed forces were still segregated, with black units often drawing the most unsavory assignments.  Accomplishments such as those of the Tuskegee airmen went unnoticed. ... 

  Barack Obama along with the help of his Democrat majority run Senate and Congress will easily pass the policies and laws needed to advance his oppressive socialist agenda and this will cause so much damage to our socioeconomic system….. along with the dismantling of our Constitution that it will be catastrophic and within two years from the time he steps into the Oval Office he will have... 

No matter how deeply they delve into people’s thought processes, however, polls will never be perfect predictors of election results. Like the brain of an undecided voter, the electorate as a whole may lean toward one candidate or another, but until the ballots are cast on Nov. 4, it remains undecided.  Read More →

We are currently in what is my least favorite time of every olympiad: the presidential and other other major election times. Time for attack ads, mostly untrue, unkeepable promises, and out and out lies. Little actual information. Recently we in the Red River Valley had a supposed treat: a visit from Sarah Pahlin’s husband, who, of course wasn’t really doing any campaigning, but...
