Comment on Featured: Lou Gehrig by Film Discovery Shows a Jolly Lou Gehrig in Post-Ruth Era | Tsangg

Film Discovery Shows a Jolly Lou Gehrig in Post-Ruth Era | Tsangg — Thu, 03 Jul 2014 19:09:47 +0000

[…] The film, long stored in canisters and boxes in Paul Hardart’s mother’s house in Bronxville, N.Y., portrays a playful Gehrig four years before amyotrophic lateral sclerosis fully eroded his athletic skills and forced him to retire. On July 4, 1939, an emotional Gehrig delivered his “luckiest man” farewell address between games of a doubleheader against the Washington Senators at Yankee Stadium. Gehrig was the image of heartbreak when he made the speech — a weakened man in a baggy uniform choking up and wiping tears from his face as he thanked his family, teammates, managers and even the groundskeepers.

Comment on Kent State Shootings Kent State Shootings: ‘How Could Our Government Do This to Our People?’ by Stan Chaz

Thank you for reminding us of this May 4th tragedy. A slaughter,
whose innocent victims then President I-am-not-a-crook Richard Nixon callously called “bums”. In America.
This, as dozens of drafted men were dying, hundreds maimed, every week, week after bloody week, in an insane out-of-control war that kept on grinding forward, year after year after year. And when you demonstrated, when you protested, you were killed….
May we never forget. Four dead in Ohio.
Shot dead by the National Guard.
May it never happen again. May we actively work to prevent it.

i think that the murder of dr mLk was race movtivated,not only him but robert kenedy as well and president kendey. the head of the fbi was involved because the the people who hated dr king or was affraid of him felt that the black people were going to take over the world. Why else would all three of these great people be killed so close together. the killing of lee harvey oswald was an cleaver attempt to cover up the truth about the tradgedy.this tradgedy became most important because if the real truth would got out this great nation of ours would have colasped and many people would have died maybe a race riot nevr imagended before. So is it better for this nation to go on living a lie about the events that realy happend that tragic era ? what if the truth and nothing but the truth came out at the time of these tragic events,how would this nation be? i think this nation would be the great nation that dr king dreamed of and there would be no race issues today.

Comment on Berlin Wall Fall of the Berlin Wall: ‘I Cried. It’s Quite Simple’ by Eddie in New York

Really moving. I remember being in East Berlin before the Wall came down. People all drove Trebans (sp?) and there were no advertising so the streets looked unusually stark compared to the West. On the day I was there, I saw a line of people waiting for strawberries at a store. The great thing was that you could go to Checkpoint Charlie or one of the other checkpoints and hitchhike. From there, you were guaranteed a ride all the way back to West Germany. I remember the guard giving me a double take with my American passport. Been back a few times since, its now nearly impossible to distinguish between where east and west used to be.
