Follow your dreams. Dont let anyone or thing stop you from achieving. These guys risk death, maming, humilation for our benefit. Stop whining. Life is unfair but persevere and you can make it. Thanks Fred for your service in the struggle. An older guy was telling me how baseball agents would come to Birmingham to recruit but Bull Conner (racist police chief) didnt want blacks interacting with whites so the recruits would have to travel to Florida to avoid being harassed by police. We have come a long way. Thank you again Fred/ foot soldiers.
