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. It is also a place for political and societal rantings. All of this is to keep you reading here.

Trayvon Martin Case Protests Across Nation Culminate With Show Of Strength In Florida
Although there are many people to thank for bringing Trayvon Martin's case to public attention it has been Trymaine Lee who has been consistently on point. Thanks for the excellent work Mr. Lee. I had severely cut back on my Huff-Post reading bot you are essential reading since I want to stay current with the movement to get justice for Trayvon Martin's family.
It's a sad day when I agree with Joe Scarborough but I do, "What are they waiting for?"

Trayvon Martin Killing's Youngest Witness, 13, Still Can Hear The Screams
My heart breaks for the parents. I have 16 year old and I am like most parents terrified that something like this would happen to him. Where is the justice? A child minding his business is gunned down by a gun toting wannabe play cop? I am angry. The Martin family needs justice. We all do.

New Mexico Mayor David Lansford's Obama Remarks Lead City Official To Resign, Consider Recall Effort
Good Lord! These folks are crazy as all get out. So, let me see...President Obama was recruited in his 20's to seek the Presidency, and he waited until the guy preceding him screwed up the economy so bad we nearly spun into a depression (not that the recession has been painless), handed two failing wars, an aging population, crumbling infrastructure and screaming teabaggers who want stuff for them and nobody else. Yet, two years into cleaning up the mess left by the Republican President he gets a rabid House of Representatives and an unending bunch of birthers to boot. I surely think that if this is a CIA plot we all should be deeply afraid since that CIA is a chock full of a bunch of bumblers.
The sad fact is that this guy is the mayor of anywhere is a shame to the nutty citizenry who elected him.

Obama's Religion Still A Campaign Issue: Many Alabama, Mississippi Voters Believe President Is Muslim
No, because the President says so. In Christianity you profess your belief. He has. No one has the right to question what he believes because no but he and God knows what that is...everyone who professes to be a Christian must be taken on faith that that is who they are.
While I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ I am ashamed of some people who profess to be Christians but don't actually seem to buy into what Christ was instructing us to be and how to act. Folks who want to deny that the President is a Christian no little of what and who Christians are.

What a chucklehead! Stop, I mean it. Stop bringing this nonsense up as if the facts will change. The President of the United States is a black man. Accept it.
