Oprah and Forest Witaker
If you haven't seen the movie, The Butler, Starring Forest Witaker, do yourself and your family a favor and GO SEE IT! You will, laugh, cry, and say to someone, "What did he just say?"
It reminds me of the few short years I lived in the South and how I was treated as a child!
Yes, I picked cotton and worked on a farm!
Unbelievable, but true!
This movie will make you think, and think again!
I loved the fact that she's promoting the fro!
I couldn't wear one as a kid, (that's a whole other story) but an an adult,
I can now rock it any way I want!
So can you!

New Generation on the March
Black Youths and the March on Washington: Fighting a New Breed of Racism
By Tonyaa Weathersbee
Source: BlackAmericaWeb.com
When I think about the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, I think about
all the young black people back in 1963 whose footsteps were powered by their pain.
And their dreams.
Many, like U.S. Rep. John Lewis of Georgia, then a member of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee
and the youngest person to speak at the march, made their way to the National Mall, their flesh still stinging
from billy club beatings and hits from high-pressure hoses, their ears still ringing with slurs from racists.
Yet they didn't give in to the hopelessness that such violence was intended to induce. They fought it.
And because they fought it, they ended the unjust laws that would have kept them stuck at second class status.
But here we are, 50 years later, and the violence and discouragement that many young black people who marched
on Washington endured is plaguing black youths again.

TOP 2013/2014 GOVERNMENT INTERNSHIPS
FOR MINORITY STUDENTS
Every year, thousands of local and federal government agencies offer internships to college graduates. Some are even offered to students who are still in college, or even high school. Many of these programs target minority students who are often left out.
Some are paid positions and some are unpaid. But all offer valuable experiences, and many students who have participated in the programs have gone on to find successful careers. Many have even used the experience to add value to their resumes, and/or to qualify for scholarships in graduate school.
Here's a list of the top government internship opportunities for minority students in 2013 and 2014:
STILL AVAILABLE FOR 2013:
James E. Webb Internship Program for Minority Undergraduates
Smithsonian Minority Awards Program
Minority Serving Institutions (MSI) Intern Program
AVAILABLE IN 2014:
