Juliette Ochieng aka Baldilocks

A while back, I started thinking about how we Americans -- especially those of us who attended urban inner-city public schools -- have been short-changed with respect to our formal primary and secondary education.

Fedsurrection: Under Dogged Questioning About Ray Epps and Federal Agents Inciting Violence at "Insurrection," FBI All But Admits Their Agents Incited the Riots by Repeatedly Refusing to Deny Epps Works for Them
