Stand For Our Kids

Words such as dismantling, deleting, or dissolving should never be associated with the word education. Words such as promote, empower, expand, encourage, support and bolster should be the words linked to education. Whether at the national level or the state level, our education department is vital to the strength of our nation. We lead by example and when we, especially at the federal level,…

Becoming Fred and Walter

Warning sign. Blank warning sign. Vector illustration Eighty years ago, in 1944, two young men, Fred Wetzler and Walter Rosenbery, witnessed the horrors of Auschwitz. They knew that they had to do something. Miraculously, these brave young men escaped, warned and exposed this atrocity to the world. As a writer and a grandfather, I can’t sit by idly and watch America turn into a dictatorship.…

Thanks Joe

Dear Joe , I’ve proudly served this great nation of ours when it didn’t always love me back.

Dear Joe, I've proudly served this great nation of ours when it didn't always love me back. But what you did yesterday reminded me that this country still have some great leaders with a righteous heart. Thanks Mr Biden for taking the time to correct an injustice long overdue. Of all your great deeds, I want to personally thank you for what you did for MARCUS GARVEY. They tried to silence this man who gave so many people a sense of pride in themselves. This man planted the seeds of civil rights. I am truly grateful to you Joe for reminding us that it's impossible to silence a righteous spirit. Sincerely, Randolph Randy Camp

Keep Moving, Keep Going

Keep Going… Like any other year, 2024 had its fair share of ups and downs. Sometimes we smile when we feel like crying. There were moments when I felt like throwing in the towel. We’ve all had these moments. Sometimes they are fleeting, and sometimes these moments stick around a little too long. We all have wounds and scars that others don’t readily see. We’ve been told over and over to keep…

You'll Get There, Ode to Birdie West

You’ll Get There, Ode to Birdie West… When I was young I was anxious and eager, maybe a little too anxious and eager. One of my favorite high school teachers, Ms. Birdie West, encouraged me to slow down. Just like any other kid, I wanted to know why and how things worked. If something was new to me I wanted to take a closer look at it. I didn’t have a green thumb and I’d never seen an actual…

Write With Heart

Whether you’re a journalist covering a story for your local paper, an aspiring screenwriter, or a student working on your class assignment, write with your heart. Second guessing and self-doubt are two obstacles in writing we must overcome. When I was writing ‘Coreville Park a Reggae Novel’ it took me three drafts before I was able to drop some of my inhibitions and finally allow my true writer…

The Impactful Power of Movies, Saving Our Children

My daughter Randie and I would have long, deep conversations about books, movies, stories and relatable characters. When I woke up this morning, I thought about Randie and the likely conversation we might’ve had, if she was still with us. I’m pretty sure Randie would have made a comment or two about some of her favorite books that could help people, particularly help kids, to better understand…

And respect leaders who will allow you to freely think for yourself, permit you to make your own decisions and control your own destiny. Be positive, stay positive. Vote positive. Some leaders make attempts to suppress and silence certain groups, while other leaders, true leaders, respect all voices.…
