And seeing the stock getting to 130 a share. Also has a value rating on those shares. Disney up 40 over the past year. Harder and harder to come up with something new, isnt it .

About the ways in which experience transforms attitudes. So lincoln grew but so did so many other americans. In my last book i wrote about a lot of soldiers. And one of the important elements of the emancipation proclamation can is when the army becomes an army of liberation, it changes their mind. The enslaved are an abstraction for the vast majority of northerners. So what does it mean when youre marching south and youre able to humanize african americans.

Its parts of a society thats trying to move ahead to solve what for them is lets pose it has a problem. The problem of freedom in the age of slavery. Thats a complicated problem. And on one hand vast strides are made. On the other hand 150 years later its a problem that the nation continues to have to address.

The deal that had been worked out with local Law Enforcement and the segregationists was evident 15 minutes they would have 15 minutes before Law Enforcement intervened. After about a 15 minute point a local Law Enforcement officer pulled his weapon and fired a shot. That is what stopped the attack. In the meantime the trailways bus arrived an hour later. They dont know until they arrived that the Greyhound Bus was already attacked. The interesting thing about the trailways bus, unlike the Greyhound Bus, several segregationists had gotten on the bus in atlanta. They were riding from atlanta. They had not only harassed the atlanta, the bus from but they had also beaten several of the freedom riders while on the bus.
