Greetings All,
...and 12 have been killed over the past two weeks in Indianapolis, Indiana. Will this be the deadliest summer ever witnessed for Black males ages 16 to 25? I would hope not. Our individual and collective efforts must thwart this nefarious trend. Here's the video from Birmingham:
YouTube - Murders & Violence in Birmingham, AL, July 2008
Always appreciate the check-ins. Thank you, Sherrel Stewart, of BlackAmericaWeb.com for the heads-up in Birmingham. And a big congratulations to Dr. Harris Pastides for being selected as the new president of University of South Carolina. I have enjoyed our interactions and conversation throughout the years. You are well-deserving of the office. Take care.
Peace and Great Health,
Mike
