"When the Nazis came to Szereszow, Poland, in 1940, the Riteman family was, with the rest of the Jews in the area, herded into the Pruzhany ghetto. When the trains began to move, in 1941, the Ritemans were taken to Auschwitz. Within a week at the infamous concentration camp, Mr. Riteman’s parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters were all dead. By the end of the war, he had been shifted through five camps; forced to build crematoriums, to transport bodies, to act as a human shield. When he was liberated in 1945, the 17-year-old weighed just 75 pounds.

In 1946 he came to Newfoundland to live with an aunt to become a businessman.

After 40 years of pained silence, in 1989 Mr. Riteman began to share his story. He now emphasizes the importance of educating youth about the Holocaust."

Thank you very much! :)

I am looking for a girl named Beth Hardwick, although I'm sure her name has changed by now. I went to school with her about 6 years ago at IUPUI in Indianapolis. I had Sociology R-100 with her. She was pregnant at the time. She was awesome artist, and she drew me a picture of a snail. The address she gave me was when she was living in New Castle, Indiana. If you are Beth, or you know Beth, please contact me! Thanks!

Okay lets say you are filling out an application or whatever and they ask you what race you are what do you put if one of your parents is black and the other white... or what ever type of mixed races... Do they have an "other" option?

Only 55 percent of all Americans know that the sun is a star.

About 100 people choke to death on ballpoint pens each year.

Why is this happening? What can we do as the general public to assist our fellow man to learn?

In the movies a black woman is either the mother/grandmother type if she's older, the promiscous type (if she's beautiful ) or ghetto fabulous.

In reality, none of these stereotypes fit me.

I am attractive, pretty face, long hair, brown skin and nice body.

Just because I am attractive does'nt make me a whore, looking for a man to give me attention.

I know nothing about the ghetto because I was'nt raised there.

I am niether loud and rude.

I am posting this question just to see what answers I will get.

Do you think society do this to downplay black females?

She's a fake. She's shown time and time again on the Montell show that she doesn't have any clue what she's talking about. She just told this woman whose daughter was murdered that the killer left a matchbook behind. The mother says she never found one. And then she told this other woman that her mother's name was Margaret, then tried to play it off. Why do people buy into this crap?
