I agree that we need more "learning of our shared cultural heritage": Latin American immigrants need to learn more about the European-American cultural heritage.

All Hispanics need to know about European-American cultural heritage is contained in stories of slavery, greed and human exploitation as exemplified in the Manifest Destiny where it was believed that "God wants the society of white male owners of land & of European decent (except Spain & Portugal) to dominate the North America continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

I attended this event today and it was led by a State Historian who gave a fine speech about the meaning of the colors red, white, and blue. The mounted guard looked great on their smart horses. The Alta California flag was raised and everyone who attended was invited to be included in a group photo in front of the horseback riders, in front of the flag pole.

I didn't see the leaders of our local Heritage Council there, though! One woman opened the Pena Adobe so visitors could go in, but I didn't see any of the men leaders in attendance.???

This was supposed to be a historical event. It was really quite impressive and it was a beautiful day for it.

What is the "Pea Adobe" ?

The headline writer or editor is lame, or the headline font display deletes "non-standard" characters.

Maroons.

This statement does not understand history of America - North And South because each religion has its dogma of manifest destiny, and the story of conquest and domination is not the exlcusive experience of one group - but is common place.

The important gift is to increase knowledge with the ability to think by analysis of push-pull influences in history. The local conversation of history is expanced with these acitivities so we expand the US window from 200 years of political science to 500 years of understangind the bio-interaction of worldwide expansion of transportation and commerce. This story is history - not propaganda.

Hey Einstein, how many black slaves did it take to construct Fort McHenry in Baltimore Harbor?
The U.S. National Anthem was based on a song sung by the slave laborers building Ft. McHenry. When they got up at the crack of dawn, they would chant, "Oh say can you see, any bed bugs on me?"
The bedbug is the municipal critter for the City of Baltimore. Every hotel in the gawd awful city has em. The bedbugs first infest the crotch then enter the urethra and work their way up to the brain which is why almost everyone in Baltimore are nutz. And since Mayor Sheila had President Obama declare the Baltimore Bedbug an endangered species, there's absolutely nothing that can be done about them except to raise them as pets.
The ONLY good that ever came out of Baltimore's history was a newspaperman by the name of H.L. Mencken.
City of Baltimore - on a healthy day:

Hey, Mike - I don't live in baltimore, it is only the server site. You will get no argument from me about your opinions of mob town. Mencken: Agreed. What is your real point? Perhaps to refute my message about a defective thought process that leads some to consider all white people as racist scum?

Daily Horoscope for December 29

Leo

It's hard to pin down a certain person today because they're being so vague and dithery. Ask them a question and they'll vacillate or be unable to give you a straight answer. You might suspect them of deceitful goings on but it's far more likely that they're simply in a world of their own and can't keep their mind on anything for long. Don't worry, they'll soon be back on planet earth.
