Wednesday News
There has been a lot of news in the world. A new trade deal involving America, Mexico, and Canada was recently signed. The FBI investigation is still going on about Kavanaugh. If it ends soon, then that is too short of a probe, because witnesses haven't been thoroughly investigated and interviewed. Kavanaugh has been caught in many lies about drinking (and a letter that he written called himself plus his friends "obnoxious drunks"), certain slang, and about other issues. Trump has attacked Dr. Ford days after the hearing. He attacked her in a rally at Southaven, Mississippi. This isn't surprising since Trump is known for making derogatory comments about women. The NY Times has an article accusing Trump of utilizing tax fraud and financial corruption too. The truth is that sexual harassment and sexual assault are real issues in the world. Those evils must be eradicated completely in the world. Every victim of such evils should be given compassion and respect. Certainly, these problems are epidemics worldwide. That is why awareness and justice are necessary.
One of the greatest musicians of all time had his birthday days ago. He isn't here physically, but his influence is alive and well today in the 21st century. Every current musician in this generation has been influenced directly or indirectly by Donny Hathaway. An icon of music, he always experimented with beats and sounds. He never wavered in his commitment to human excellence and allowing the crowd to enjoy his music. He was born in Chicago. Not to mention that he did it all. Jazz, gospel, soul, R&B, songwriting, playing the organ, and playing the piano were all a part of his life. He was raised in St. Louis. He came into college at the famous HBCU Howard University. He worked with many legendary artists like the Staple Singers, Jerry Butler, Aretha Franklin, the Impressions and Curtis Mayfield. His third album called Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway was an album of duets with former Howard University associate and label mate Roberta Flack that established him, especially on the pop charts. Their song "Where is the Love" is one of the greatest records from both artists. He released This Christmas song in 1970. He had many children and her daughter Lalah Hathaway is a great singer in her own right. He was a key foundation of soul music. To fully understand music in general, people have to studying the artistry of Donny Hathaway. He was 33 years old when he passed away. He was a legend.
Rest in Power Brother Donny Hathaway.
It is always important to recognize the sacrifice of people in getting freedoms that we cherish today. Malcolm X honestly exposed the evil of racism while desiring revolutionary solutions to be implemented in order for us to be truly free. Even before his Hajj, Malcolm X told the truth that police brutality is evil, black people must honor their features, and white racism is a notorious evil that must end in the world. The late Pakistani leader Benazir Bhutto wanted democracy and justice to exist in Pakistan. She was the first woman elected to lead a Muslim state being elected twice as Prime Minister of Pakistan. She was the socialist-democratic political leader who believed in human democracy. She was assassinated on December 27, 2007 for promoting her views. Eleanor Roosevelt, Frances Perkins, and others inspired President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to pass laws that saved the lives of millions of America who suffered poverty, joblessness, and other economic distressful situations.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. not only believed in peace and justice. He also actively was involved in protests against the Vietnam War and desired a radical redistribution of economic and political power in making economic justice real for our society. Dr. King traveled throughout the world to advocate for peace and justice. Nelson Mandela, Steve Biko, Miriam Makeba, and other South Africans did their part in eradicating apartheid once and for all in South Africa. Raoul Wallenberg saved the lives of thousands of Jewish people during the Holocaust (or the Shoah). Abolitionists like Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, and Harriet Tubman were instrumental in freeing the lives of millions of African Americans. We have heroes in our generation who are combating gun violence, environmental pollution, and threats to our civil liberties.
Therefore, the fundamental point is that we can make a difference. Heroes don't have to include every famous people. Unsung individuals have played a large role in helping the world in general. Any government should treat those in the dawn of life, the elderly, the poor, the physically disabled, and everyone else as equals filled with total compassion. In our lives, the Golden Rule should always be the preeminent ideology of our souls. Our liberty and our rights are inborn. They ought to be protected firmly. Selflessness and care for our neighbor along with us endorsing the implementation of using public programs to help humanity is the essence of progressive thinking.
