Little Known American History Should Be More Emphasized in Memphis
Very interesting History lesson. Apparently he does a show on Founding Fathers every Friday.
It seems that some facts about American History and Black History in America as related to our founding have been erased, or at least marginalized, over time. If children knew there were more figures involved in the Founding of America that they might be able to identify with; maybe they would be more inclined to learn about it....

The Black Conservative
Glenn Beck had a good show on Friday 13th last week about and for Black Conservatives in America called "Time to be Heard". He dedicated the entire show to this group, who many people think do not exist. Maybe thats why he aired it on Friday the 13th.
I just caught a few minutes of the show before I had to leave so I found it and posting it here for future reference. One of the discusions I heard was how liberal politicians enact policies to keep poor blacks in poverty by handing out welfare so they will continue to vote for them. The problem is that this welfare is barley enough to live on but not enough to help people move up in life.
