Tony McGee and the Wyoming 14

February 3, 2011 

 

Raynard Jackson

 

With the beginning of Black History Month two days ago and the upcoming Super Bowl on Sunday, I thought I would bring you a story that has gotten very little attention, especially in the Washington, DC area.

 

How many of you are familiar with former professional football player Tony McGee (Washington Redskins) and the Wyoming 14?  It’s very unfortunate that most of you have never heard of either.  They represent everything good about a previous generation that ma

THE SOUTHERN SUDAN REFERENDUM,
9 -15 January 2011

There are historical roots linking north and south  Sudan. The Nile
River ties the parties  together for better or for worse. Music and
food are shared by the two people. Commonalities created a union
government for all Sudanese in the north and south. Some say that the
commonalities  far outreach constitutional differences  and if these
are not respected in future the fault will be laid at the door of
politicians, not the people.
Some 1800 journalists

A visit to Cracow

Why would anyone want to descend into the dark depths when a crisp October sun was shining on the cobbles of the largest medieval square of Europe, flanked by a medieval Cloth Hall, the continent's second-oldest university, a Gothic church and Cukiernas dispensing the traditional creamcrammed pastry? As it turned out, this journey now ranks among my most mine-blowing experiences. For over 900 years, kings and scientists, engineers and humble miners have upgraded what nature created 15 million ye

State of the YOUnion

January 27, 2011

 

Raynard Jackson

 

Two nights ago, President Obama delivered his annual State of the Union address and, as usual, he declared the state of our union is good.  No president has ever said anything differently.  Every president is only going to put the best face on the state of affairs in our country. 

 

But, the state of our union is not great.  We have runaway deficits, high unemployment, unbridled partisan bickering, crumbling infrastructures (bridges, roads, etc.), and a Congress wi
