Erin Spatz: Delivering a joke is a talent

John Brock: Slave narratives offer firsthand view of life before & after freedom
For the past few weeks I have been reading slave narratives written from interviews by writers working for the WPA projects in the 1930s.

Erin Spatz: Listening to kids
Have you ever listened to the conversations that kids have? Sometimes when I overhear the conversations my kids are having with each other, I catch them plotting something. Like how to strap a saddle on the dog while no one is looking. Or, who’s turn it is to ask for another snack. The ...
John Brock: Voter ID? I voted several years as a forty-something black man
I don't understand the entire objection against photo identification in order to vote. And, I have a personal example of why we should always fight voting misdeeds. When I moved back to South Carolina, I had to re-register to vote. I went to the board of elections. I identified myself and gave them ...
