About Me

I hope this page will serve as a resource of information, as well as a springboard for meaningful discussion of the issues effecting our society today.
It seems to me that so many of the freedoms we fought for back in the 60s are in danger of being taken away.
Intolerance towards people based on their race, creed, color, and/or sexual orientation is, if anything, more prevalent than ever before.
Keep in mind that there are many ways to 'fight for freedom'. It can be done on the battlefield, the picket line, or by speaking out against injustice whatever the cost.There is a cost to be paid for the freedoms we enjoy.That's why we need to always be vigilant against anything or anyone that tries to take them away...
A case in point is the heartbreaking decision of the New York City Court to acquit the officers involved in the shooting death of a young, black, groom, just hours before his wedding. This incident is painfully reminiscent of the killing almost ten years ago of young, African, immigrant Amadou Diallo, which inspired the Bruce Springsteen song '41 Shots', which I have included below.
Only difference now is that they've upped the ante. In this incident 50 were fired.
Please read my blog where I include a news excerpt of the entire story.
