I'm working on a project for infant survival and community unity. And I'm on a Undoing Institutional Racism Community Action Team. We are trying to look at ways to create awareness and address the issue. From my research, I've found that the US ranks 42nd in the world for infant mortality and third world countries beat us in providing care to infants. For African-Americans, the rate doubles where 1 in 5 infants die. And I've heard from other community members, that there is a disparity in treatment by physicians, there are stats to show the disparity based on outcomes, and then there are personal stories talking to infant mortality is not a socio-economic as African-Americans at any rung of the socio-economic ladder faces the same institutional racism growing up and their birth outcomes are still dire compared to the general population. And then again, we live in a civil technological society with the 'best' doctors and academia, but still rank in the cess pool for infant mortality..

2 groups of cadets are facing each other. Leader of first group tells the leader of second group, lend me one cadet then I will have double the cadets in my group compared to yours.

leader of first group says to the second group, why dont u lend me one cadet so that strength of both groups is same.

and my teacher whos also a priest said something about all sins being equal or something like that. therefore there wouldnt be punishment but only begging for forgiveness. so my question is how could this possibly work when you will always have people who either dont believe or have mental problems who kill people? they would just keep killing

My friend and I were arguing. I said only men have smelly feet; he says both genders experience it equally. Who is correct? I find it hard to believe him cuz I've never smelled it on a woman.

I am a bookworm and read books on almost all subjects; these days I am on the hunt for fantasy authors I have not explored as yet. I would prefer trilogies because anthologies beyond three books can be a bit too tedious for a person like me who is reading all the time.
I recently got my first taste of Mercedes Lackey; the book was Exile's Honour and I would give it three stars.

That's like saying you think a girl is cute but that her twin sister is ugly. Or like saying you think a girl is cute, but only if there is music playing in the backround as she walks in the door. lol
