History Lessons for my daughter - part 2

Me: Write a scene where a father tells his daughter story about the life of Lani Guinier, who was one of his father's friend and colleague

ChatGPT:

Dad sat down on the couch with his daughter, a book in his hand. "I want to tell you about someone who was a great friend of your grandfather's," he said. "Her name is Lani Guinier."

"Who's Lani Guinier?" his daughter asked.

"Well, she was a brilliant lawyer who worked for the government in Washington. She was the first African American woman to become a tenured professor at Harvard Law School, and she went on to work for President Bill Clinton."

"That's really cool," his daughter said.

"Yes, it is," Dad said. "But the reason I want to tell you about Lani Guinier is because of what happened to her when she was nominated to be the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights."

"What happened?"

"Well, some people in Congress didn't like the fact that Lani was an advocate for something called proportional representation. That's a way of making sure that different groups are represented fairly in our government, even if they don't have a majority. But some people thought it was a bad idea, and they attacked Lani for it."

"That's not fair," his daughter said.

"No, it wasn't," Dad agreed. "But Lani didn't give up. She stood up for what she believed in, and she never stopped fighting for justice. She's a real hero, and I think you should know about her."

"I want to learn more about her," his daughter said.

Dad smiled. "I thought you might."

Me: Write a poem about David Dinkins

ChatGPT:

A son of Trenton, born to lead and serve, A man of history, who broke the curve, His spirit strong, his heart forever pure, David Dinkins, may his name endure.

The first Black mayor of a mighty town, He wore the crown, and never once a frown, Through all the trials and the endless strife, He stood with grace and dignity, his life.

From Harlem streets to City Hall he rose, With eloquence and kindness, he opposed The forces that would tear his city down, And with his voice, he turned it all around.

So let us sing his praises loud and clear, David Dinkins, we hold him ever dear, A beacon for the ages, let us hear His call for justice, now and every year.

On This Day in New York City History January 1, 1990: The former Manhattan Borough President David N. Dinkins (July 10, 1927 – November 23, 2020) was inaugurated as the 106th and the first black mayor of New York City.

Dinkins earned the Democratic nomination by defeating incumbent mayor Edward Koch in the primary. In the general election, Dinkins would defeat the Republican candidate, Rudolph W. Giuliani, by 47,000 votes, the narrowest electoral margin in the city’s history.

Today In History “Mr. Dinkins, would you please be my mayor? You'll be doing us a really big favor..” - Phife Dawg David Dinkins was an African American politician, lawyer, and author who served as the 106th Mayor of New York City from 1990 to 1993, becoming the first African American to elected to the office on this date November 7, 1989.

The day of the protest, Rudy Giuliani was also outside the building with a microphone. Giuliani, a former U.S. Attorney and failed mayoral candidate in 1989, declared, “The reason the morale of the police department of the City of New York is so low is one reason and one reason alone: David Dinkins!” The crowd roared.

“The mayor doesn’t know why the morale of the police department is so low,” Giuliani said. “He blames it on me. He blames it on you. Bullshit!” Giuliani then attacked an anti-corruption commission impaneled by Dinkins, which he said was created “to protect David Dinkins’s political ass.” More cheers rose from the crowd.

Black History All Year 2020 . David Norman Dinkins was born in Trenton, New Jersey in 1927. After graduating from high school, he enlisted in the Marine Corps at eighteen and served in 1945 and 1946, after the end of World War II.  After the war, he attended Howard University, graduating with a B.A. in mathematics in 1950.  Dinkins moved to New York City and received a law degree from the Brooklyn Law School in 1956.  Dinkins was a member of Sigma Pi Phi and Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternities. David Dinkins’s political career began when he joined the Carver Club headed by a charismatic politician, J. Raymond Jones, who was known as the Harlem Fox. Dinkins befriended three up-and-coming black New York politicians, Charles Rangel, Basil Paterson, Sr., and Percy Sutton.  In 1965, Dinkins won his first electoral office, a seat in the New York State Assembly. Shortly afterwards Dinkins was offered the position of deputy mayor of New York by Mayor Abraham Beam.  Dinkins was unable to accept the post after it was revealed that he had not paid income taxes for the previous four years. • Dinkins did manage to secure the position of city clerk for New York, which he held from 1975 to 1985. On his third run for the office, Dinkins was elected Manhattan’s borough president in 1985.  In 1989, Dinkins decided to run for mayor of New York.  He surprised political observers by defeating three-time incumbent, Mayor Ed Koch, in the Democratic primaries.  Despite facing a strong Republican challenger in former federal prosecutor Rudolph Giuliani, Dinkins narrowly won the mayor’s race. • #restinpower #blackandproud #abolitionnow #bhie #blackhistoryiseverywhere #blackhistoryiseverywhereperiod #ibeenblack #justblack #buyblack #lovemybiz #travel #seetheworld #creativeminds #businesssuccess #successmindset #booklovers #daviddinkins #blackmayor (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIYVQtIDWIY/?igshid=bwqad3cfv07p
