The Learning Center, once a viable institution in New Orleans as a part of the New Orleans Public Library, like much of New Orleans no longer exists, it was washed away by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005. The Learning Center in Exile has become one of a documentation of my and others' rites of passage toward personal progress like getting a decent job at middle age or finishing school.

South Carolina Governor: Obama Stimulus Will Turn U.S. Into Zimbabwe
My thinking exactly. My home state Louisiana, is headed by its own fruitcake that plans to continue keeping the state moored into the 19th century. Wage suppression, hostility towards unions, very poor race relations (if folks told the truth) and serious ecological concerns with its large petro-chemical industry that fights regulations to the tooth. You have Louisiana, a banana republic that has great natural resources, a hard working populace, and loads of potential if only it had the right leadership and moved past its past. It is really a shame that almost the same thing can be said of each of the southern states that are resisting moving forward with the rest of the nation.
