Obama S Charlottesville Tweet The Most Popular Ever Is Only Sort Of True

It’s a strong, inspirational quote. And it’s core message rings true: Love overpowers hate, and we need to teach the world to love. But, like most of the inspirational quotes hanging on classroom walls, it’s only sort of true. As the tweet concerns how young people come to hate, it’s important for parents to understand the ways in which it is, well, not quite right. Claim #1: “No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin…” Strictly speaking, it’s true....

Over 1 000 Ancient Dinosaur Tracks Found In Chilean Town

ADN Radio Chile reported that these new dinosaur findings were discovered in the small town of Huatacondo, which has the highest concentration of dinosaur footprints in Chile. Fossilized footprints are different than bones, Newsweek explains, because they can reveal information about the animals’ behavior that fossilized bones cannot. Footprints help scientists learn more about the dinosaur’s habits based on where the prints are found and the area’s conditions. Once the Huatacondo community discovered the footprints, paleontologists were called in from the Geology School of the Universidad Mayor in Santiago....

Paralympic Athlete Josh George On His Dad S Best Advice

George is already the world record holder in the 800, and a 5-time Paralympic medalist, which is impressive enough on it’s own. It’s even more impressive considering he fell out of a 12-story window when he was 4, shattering his legs, dislocating his hips, and damaging his spinal cord. That would rank as an 11 on the terrifying-moment-for-a-parent scale. But, even when Josh lost the use of everything below his midsection, his father, Scott, never questioned whether his son could lead a fulfilling life....

Pierce Brosnan Rocks Van Dyke Beard But You Should Stay Away

Pierce Brosnan wowed the Golden Globes red carpet when he appeared with a new beard style no one was prepared for. They report that last week, Brosnan was walking around with a regular person beard, but stepped up his style for the Hollywood event with what Esquire is calling a Van Dyke beard. “It’s called a Van Dyke, and it’s not named after Dick.

Police Body Camera Footage Of George Floyd S Arrest Leaks

In the two-plus months since his death, George Floyd has become one of the most powerful symbols in the world. Murals of his face have gone up around the country and millions have protested around the world, as his death at the hands of Minneapolis police neatly told a much larger story about police corruption, militarization, violence, and racism. But before he was a symbol, George Floyd was a man, and newly leaked police bodycam video is a gut-wrenching reminder of that fact, that all of the abstract forces that have been the subject of protests around the country resonate because of the awful thing that happened to this flesh-and-blood human being....
