REST IN PEACE: AIYANA JONES



At some time this weekend, please bow your head in prayer for the family of Aiyana Jones. We must pray for a world that allows such a dastardly act to occur. Please talk to your loved ones about the appropriate response to this tragedy caused by police terrorism. If people can organize to constantly throw parties, we should be able to organize to do something in the loving memory of this innocent angel.

Fly Quotes: The Curtis Mayfield Edition

"Our purpose is to educate as well as to entertain." -Curtis Mayfield

Book Excerpt: "The Tipping Point" By: Malcolm Gladwell

"A television is just a talking box. In experiments, children who are asked to read a passage and are then tested on it will invariably score higher than children asked to watch a video of the same subject matter. Educational experts describe televison as 'low involvement.' Television is like a strain of the common cold that can spread like lightening through a population, but only causes a few sniffles and is gone in a day." -From, "The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make A Big Difference" By: Malcolm Gladwell

"We are all, at heart, gradualists, our expectations set by the steady passage of time...We need to prepare ourselves for the possibility that sometimes big changes follow from small events, and that sometimes these changes can happen very quickly." -Malcolm Gladwell ("The Tipping Point")

[SIDEBAR: I got the above stated quotes from the same book. Although the quotes were several pages apart, I combined them for this blog post because I thought it would be thought provoking to do so.]
