History - January 2007

In 1962, after I had spent several months in an Atlanta hospital, my parents drove me home to Albany, Ga., where Dr. King was leading the Albany Movement in a vain attempt to desegregate the city. Soon after, my father decided to take my mother and me for a drive. We didn't know a civil rights protest was in progress in front of the courthouse, and we drove right into the middle of it. We came to a halt in the middle of a violent scene which horrified all of us. Dr. King was being dragged across the street by several policemen to the jail in front of the courthouse. He was literally dragged across the hood of our car, and he and I stared into each other's eyes through the windshield. I was in the front seat looking straight into his face, and I felt like I was being dragged along with him. It was a terrible thing to witness, but can you believe he smiled at me in that brief moment, as if to say, "It will be all right in the end." I sincerely hope it will be, Dr. King.

I need to know this for a science paper.

REMEMBER:
Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed with an A-bomb and not a Nuclear weapon.

Dont give me the usual: It's the same thing...A-bombs explode while Nuclear weapons implode (the difference is when the bomb hits the ground and either explodes or implodes: not many people know this difference)

Been to Malta last year and when I saw the little statue called "The Sleeping lady" it definetly became my favourite piece of art, because it's so delicate, so peaceful and so old! Does anyone feel the same?

Just as Mark Antony's subtle and eloquent speech over Caesar's corpse incited the common people to attack fellow Romans—King's much-quoted 'peaceful' speeches.—deftly incited blacks into angry mobs by manipulating the emotions of them against whites.
How many riots and city burnings by blacks in the 1960's can be attributed to King's rantings against the sinister and oppressive white race....?
