The breaking news is that Donald Trump finally signed the $900 billion relief bill. The irony is that he did this days after calling the bill a "disgrace." The truth is that the bill is certainly not enough. Later on, hopefully more legislation will come to help the American people in a more thorough fashion. Trump extended the cruelty of his response by knowing about this pandemic disaster as early as February of 2020 and doing very little plus going out to show deception. Many GOP Congresspeople have been so terrible that even Ted Cruz voted against the $600 checks for the American people (while Cruz promoted Texas billionaires to get a $35 million pandemic relief loan for fracking companies). Now, 1 out of every 1000 Americans has now died as a product of the virus. While authoritarianism dominates the GOP, the Democratic Party establishment is dominated also by corporate power and militarism. Many independent, progressive, and courageous Democratic voices desire HR 40, a federal jobs gurantee, and Medicare for all. In L.A. County, one person has died from the virus every 10 minutes, and discussions are in California about rationing care.
It is just plain common sense to be given equal pay. The pay gap is in existence, because of sex discrimination and other factors of the neoliberal capitalist system. There are tons of women in sports who improve, break down barriers, and made exceptional accomplishments. The professor of exercise and physiology and physiotherapy Dr. Netto said that women work just as hard from a training perspective and are entitled to equal pay. When someone does the same job, that person deserves equal pay regardless of sex or background. In terms of athletics, the cruel irony is that the lowest performing men still get paid better than the best performing women (that includes champions too). That is why the U.S. women's soccer team still earns less than even the men's team when the women's team have multiple World Cup victories. There are differences among men and women biologically. On average, women live longer than men worldwide. Women's bodies have more adipocyte tissue compared to muscle mass. On average, the musculoskeletal system is larger in a man than a woman. One important point is that true leadership doesn't even require massive physical strength. It does require compassion, discernment, emotional intelligence, discipline, and tolerance of other people. In health, there are Type 1 slow twitch muscle fibers and Type II fast twitch muscle fibers. Women usually have a better Type 1 fibers in dealing with endurance, while men usually have a better Type 2 fibers in dealing with power. There are many women who are very strong physically and emotionally. So, we believe in equality among the sexes.
Many in the esoteric crowd believe in the existence of ley lines. Promoters of ley lines believe that cities and ancient sites are placed on certain areas of the Earth with certain energies. Some of these people believe that these places are also aligned with the same star constellations like Orion and Draco. While mainstream scientists view the ley lines concept as psuedo-science, you still have to know about many things in life even if you disagree. Many researchers have found how a straight line pattern that aligns with the locations of Teotihuacan, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City Boston, Stonehenge, Troy, and Baalbak (in Syria). In the esoteric crowd, there is a concept called "God's Longitude" found meridian 77 degrees west of England. Many astronomers and surveyors went to Virginia to mark the new Meridian, but they were lost in the Great Dismal Swamp. The meridian 77° west of Greenwich is a line of longitude that extends from the North Pole across the Arctic Ocean, North America, the Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, South America, the Pacific Ocean, the Southern Ocean, and Antarctica to the South Pole. Elaine Paulinois Phelen wrote an article on D.C. saying that the National Academy of Sciences have 12 of the zodiacs displayed in relief on the metal doors of the building. The Library of Congress Building had a display of 5 zodiacs.
The U.S. Capitol building's architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe was initiated in the Lodge No. 2, London in 1788. He was affiliated with Lodge No. 54 in Richmond, Virginia. So, in 1783, there was the federal city being planned from the U.S. Constitution. By 1790, the Residence Act implemented the Constitution. The start of the construction of the U.S. Capitol Building started in 1803. The Smithsonian Institution was established by Congress in 1847. In 1848, there was the start of the construction of the Washington monument. It was completed by 1884. The \McMilan Plan was finished by 1901. The Lincoln Memorial was built in 1922. Gary Osborn wrote literature making the unique theory that the plan of Washington, D.C. is based on the plans of the Great Pyramid.
My paternal 4th cousin is David Christian (born in May 14, 1964). Both of us are descendants of the same common ancestor of George Perkins I (b. 1815). George's son was James Perkins (b. 1841). James's son was George W. Perkins (b. 1870). His daughter was Minnie L. Perkins (b. 1919). Her daughter was Mary Madgelene Thomas (1941-2017). Her son was David Christian. His siblings are Kathy Ann Christian (b. 1970), Kevin Christian, and Willis Lee Christian. David Christian's father was David Christian Sr. (1941-1985).
One of my distant cousins is a human being named Danyelle Ashi Gibson-Gonzalez. She is related to me, because we share the same ancestor of Sarah Claud. Sarah Claud and Tom Hill's daughter was Adeline Hill (1862-1930). Adeline Hill's son was Peter Percy Williams (1880-1949). These people lived in the Southampton County, Virginia region. Peter Percy Williams had a daughter named Eunice Magdalene Williams (1909-1990). Her son was Ben Berlin Wright Sr. (1931-2005). Ben's son was Randy Darnell Wright (1956-2004). Randy Darnell Wright's daughter is Danyelle Ashi Gibson Gonzalez (she was born in 1972). Danyelle's grandparents were Dougall Plunkett (1916-2004) and Celia Eleanor Gibson (1925-1998). Her grandparents came into New York City from Jamaica. So, they are of Afro-Caribbean Jamaican descent. Danyelle Gibson lives in New York City.
It is always important to understand the roots of music. Real music always relate to soul, rhythm, and the beat. That is why when you study R&B, rock, soul, neo-soul, blues, jazz, and other genres, they have an origin from the soul music of the spirituals and gospel. In fact, many of the legendary musicians (like Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Jennifer Hudson, Jennifer Holliday, and other people), were raised in the church, because many churches had soul and rhythm. Even hip hop has elements of soul, disco, funk, blues, and jazz. Hip hop artists like Rakim (who played the saxophone and his relatives were musicians) and the late Guru admitted that they learned jazz to improve their rhyming techniques. Hip hop have elements of moving the crowd, Djs, graffiti, lyricism, soul, lines, charisma, and creative beats. Hip hop is more than putting words together. It is about making innovative ways on how you use words and the power of the content. You can't learn about music comprehensively without learning about Coltrane, Sarah Vaughan, Monk, and the legends of jazz. Music is part of a universal language. Music is global and diverse from classic music, raggae, and other forms of music in the four corners of the Earth. Therefore, true music should never be watered down, and the soul always remains powerful worldwide. We know who the originators of music are, and we know who the first people on Earth are. That's self-explanatory.
There are tons of other heroes who have made a difference in the lives of the people everyday. LaTosha Brown have fought for voting rights throughout her life. She co-founded the group of Black Voters Matter which is an organization that fight for the voting rights of black Americans. Voting matters as school board members, judges, governors, city council members, and investments to communities in the world all deal with voting. She came in Georgia and across America in making sure that Georgia became blue. She has fully documented how far we have to go as voter suppression is ever real in America, not just in the South. Cori Bush is a politician, a pastor, and an activist. He won a Missouri congressional district. She is the first African American woman to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives from Missouri. She was born and raised in St. Louis. Also, she earned a graduate diploma in nursing from the Lutheran School of Nursing in 2008. During the 2014 Ferguson movement, she worked as a triage nurse and organizer. Bush is also an unapologetic progressive who has been endorsed by Jamaal Bowman, Nina Turner, Bernie Sanders, Angela Davis, and other human begins. Fighting for criminal justice change, police reform, a $15 minimum wage, and other policies is part of her aim. She received the 2015 Women of Courage Award from the Emmett Till Legacy Foundation. Noah Harris being 20 was being elected as the first black student body President at Harvard College. He is from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. He is majoring in government and co-chairs the Undergraduate Council's Black caucus. He promotes inclusion and improving student mental plus physical health. Princeton University's Deana Lawson was the first photographer to win the $100,000 Hugo Boss Prize. She is the professor of visual arts in the Lewis Center for the Arts at Princeton University in New Jersey.
