I read Up From Slavery many years ago.

Booker T. Washington was one of my childhood heroes. (A little weird for a blue-eyed blonde from the South, I know.)

You should check out the autobiography of Frederick Douglas, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave. I recently borrowed the audiobook from my local library. It is incredible.
Right now America spends $700 billion every year on foreign oil. That's our money going overseas when it could be staying here. We have to stop this. That's why I support the Pickens Plan. Check out the website at www.pickensplan.com. If you like what you see, please join me as a Pickens Plan supporter.

It's nothing personal. It's just that we're better than you." -- King Julien
