The other day, I mentioned the daffodils coming up even after the dirt had been moved to put piers under the house. I got a pic yesterday before the windstorm moved in, with the first blossom.
Beyond that for health breaks, I’ve been walking and playing with Ollie. He got pretty tuckered out, but he’s still looking to play ball some more if someone else starts the game. Meanwhile, he’s catching 40 winks.
This is Jerry Williams. He is a smart man that for years has done science experiments debunking flat earthers. He has started branching out into other subjects. I have it cued up to the point where he starts to talk about DEIA. He does a grand job tearing apart the republican misinformation on it. At the end of the first DEI section he has placed 24 seconds of music, I fast forwarded through it to hear the rest of his reasoning about DEIA. I wish I could express my thoughts as clearly and detailed as he does. And for those that wish to read it rather than listen there is a transcript of it in the description box on the YouTube site.

Donald Trump’s disastrous federal funding freeze just threw the country into total chaos—cutting off veterans’ suicide prevention, Medicaid payments, school lunches, food assistance, emergency services, and even medical research. And the worst part? He didn’t even seem to know what he was doing. His administration scrambled to walk back the damage AFTER states, hospitals, and nonprofits went into full panic mode.
But that’s not the only reckless decision Trump has made. Let’s not forget his boneheaded withdrawal from the World Health Organization, a move that undermined pandemic response efforts and put global health security at risk. And now, he’s on a warpath against Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs—attacking anti-discrimination efforts, slashing funding for inclusive education, and gutting workplace protections for marginalized groups.

| March 15, 1942 Over 1300 Norwegian teachers were arrested by the German Nazi-installed government run by Vidkun Quisling after 12,000 of 14,000 nationwide had refused to join the new teachers’ association and resisted nazification of the curriculum. Half were held in a concentration camp outside the capital of Oslo. The rest were shipped to the Arctic for forced labor alongside Russian prisoners of war. The loss of the arrested teachers forced a school shutdown for several weeks. Each day the imprisoned teachers were marched to their job of unloading supply ships, citizens stood respectfully by as they passed. When the teachers returned home later in the year, they were treated as heroes.  Hitler and Quisling Following Germany’s defeat, Quisling was tried for treason, convicted and sentenced to death. Quisling is now considered a synonym for traitor. Vidkun Quisling – ‘The Hitler of Norway’ |
| March 15, 1963 Students from South Carolina State and Claflin College organized to integrate the lunch counter at Kresge 5&10 in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Though their efforts were disciplined and peaceful, 400 were attacked by police then herded behind fences in the largest mass arrest of the civil rights movement.  More than a 1000 students marched peacefully to integrate lunch counters in Orangeburg, South Carolina. Convicted of “Breach of the Peace,” the U.S. Supreme Court later overturned those convictions because those arrested were petitioning for redress of grievances within the protection of the 1st Amendment.

| March 15, 1965 Less than a week after the Bloody Sunday police attacks on peaceful marchers at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, President Lyndon Johnson addressed the American people before a televised Joint Session of Congress. He said, “There is no issue of States rights or national rights. There is only the struggle for human rights . . . We have already waited a hundred years and more, and the time for waiting is gone . . . .” Watch video or read the text of his speech |

In this video I read some headlines and give my opinion. I was having a lot of fun and the system stopped the camera half way through the recording. But with the program I was able to put the second record with the first into one video. As I said I felt good and comfortable. But the sad part was YouTube wouldn’t process the video for a couple days. Not sure why. But today I gave up, reformatted it, and reuploaded. It all worked. Let me know if you enjoy the video. I hope to get it down so I can switch most of my content to my videos. Hugs
