The color of the man's skin at this point is not an issue.You were not picking on them or him, you were as you usually do reporting the fact that occur in public record. The face that no one else said anything and someone knew is a public trust issue now for those that did know,and said nothing Now my NAACP membership is up for renewal-member id 108116861. My Grandmother Cochran-not here maiden name- would sit in on her Uncle Clarence's court proceedings,watch him smoke cigars with wires in them and do cross word puzzles during cross, he was white too like me, and the first council for the NAACP.

The only difference is that, unlike other private schools, which pay their own way, this will be funded by the EASD.

The lead proponent of that one was a gentleman with no educational background and who seemed to be looking for a way to make a living. Having said that, I do support charter schools tyat really offer something different and are run by people who really know what they are doing. I believe the funding mechanism has to change, and there needs to be greater accountability.
