I'll do that for my Inaugural Party.<BR/><BR/>Today at the library I had a call from a patron who was fact-checking an article that she read in USA Today. She found it hard to believe that there were still people in this country who weren't allowed to vote until Lyndon Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act of 1965--the one that lost the South for the Democratic Party for four decades--until last night, in fact. Then she asked me about women and Native Americans. I think maybe I should work up a little presentation on the history of voting rights in America. It will open some eyes for sure, especially in this privileged corner of CT.<BR/><BR/>I grew up in Texas, and I remember my mother having to pay the poll tax in order to vote. I don't remember how much it was, but I want to say $5 or $10. Back in 1966, when it was finally abolished in Texas, $10 would buy a generous week's worth of groceries.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23428832.post-65780085504197164302008-11-05T19:02:00.000-05:002008-11-05T19:02:00.000-05:00Not bad ...

I saw a silhouette of a man's body, in this silhouette were people of both genders, all ages,all nationalities and races that fit into that silhouette like a puzzle.<BR/><BR/>We are all a part of the body of Christ, every human being is a member of his body. The hand can't do without the arm, The foot can't do without the leg, The head can't do without the neck, so on and so forth. Every single part of the body is important, on down to the rectum, and plays a unique part<BR/><BR/>We the people of the United States, and the World need each other more than we'll ever know and we've got to learn to love one another unconditionally, throw all of those negative labels away and embrace one another as our fellow human beings so that we can come together. <BR/><BR/>I was reading today how the world was touched and rejoiced over Obama being elected President.
