One of My Heroes

Booker T. Washington was a great man.  Born into slavery, but when he was a grown man God called him to build a school.  We know that school today as "The Tuskegee Institute".  If he was alive now I could hear him speak with authority about Affirmative Action..."Never lean on false merits young people.  It will confuse you and the mind will become weak and of little use.  Teach the mind to rise up and conquer the struggles that embark on it, then it will be strong and something that God can use mightily".
