Everyone needs heroes.

Who was your childhood television hero?

As I watched an interview with Tom Hanks about his new movie where he channels Mr. Rogers in a peaceful neighborhood, I thought about the characters on TV from my childhood.

My favorite show was Mighty Mouse. I remember him saving female mice who were tied to railroad tracks by mean villains. 

Then there was Kingfish, Step-in-Fetchit, and Rochester. And Tonto and Popeye and Rocky and Bullwinkle and Captain Kangaroo. 

Those were the real glory days of television.

These were the shows which shaped my views of heroes, morality, and fantasy. Wonder how they did...

Racial groups mostly divided at Trump’s ATL events

Is there anything wrong with this picture?

President Trump and Vice President Pence appeared in prosperous Buckhead for a fundraising event Friday at the Whitley Hotel (formerly the Ritz Carlton) in Atlanta, meeting with the business community, and then showed up at the Ga. World Congress Center to kick off “Black Voices for Trump.”

Since I didn’t attend either event but signed up for the kickoff,  I’ve curious of what was said to both audiences. I can’t find what was said at the posh fundraiser, but have the link to the black audience event below.

Ironically, both crowds were not very ethnically diverse. Rich whites attended the first event, while a majority black group was at the second.

Just shows how economically divided the scenario turned out.

Just highlights the racial divide.

Would be nice if they could get their groups together by ending discrimination by race and class.

Or maybe make it a lot less politically noticeable.
