Although it cost Him is Part-Time Job while a Teenager, He held on to his Beliefs to Stay in the Fight, even getting Arrested Several times & Tear Gassed, Cattle Prod Shocked, Attack Dogs & Fire Hosed because he stood with others to Petition the the Governor for the Right for Blacks to Vote.Rev. Clarence Varner served The United States in the Marine Corps for 8 years & served in during Vietnam during the War , he was wounded. Today he serves his God, Country & Community in the continued fight for Civil Rights*In 1965, Blacks could not: *go to eat, Blacks were served at the Side or Back Door.*Social Movie Theatres, & Clubs too*Schools in the South & other State were Segregated*Housing was Segregated in Much of America. Redlining was the norm.* Thriving Middle Class Black Business's in Black Communities were forced out of Business due to the Federal Highway's that were built OVER that land.* Separate water Fountains & Bathrooms*Separate Transportation on Buses & Trains, etc.* Upper Corporate Jobs were not opened to most Blacks These Marches were ignited by the Death of SCLC local Jimmie Lee JacksonWhat did Jimmie Lee Jackson accomplish?Jimmie Lee Jackson, was a Vietnam veteran, Baptist deacon, activist and martyr of the Civil Rights Movement. Jackson, active in the fight for equal rights, had tried multiple times to register to vote in Alabama and was denied each time.When Jimmie Lee Jackson saw his frail 80-year-old grandfather rudely turned away from the registrar's office in 1962 after attempting to register to vote in Marion, Ala. He knew he had to join the civil rights movement.On Feb. 18, 1965, he was among more than 200 people participating in a night march in Marion. Before they had walked a block, they were confronted by state troopers and the police chief, who ordered them to disperse.Jackson and his mother huddled for safety in a café. When Jackson's grandfather entered the café bloodied and beaten, the young man tried to take him to a hospital. But they were quickly shoved back by a crowd of club-swinging troopers and terrified marchers. Another trooper pulled his pistol and shot Jackson in the stomach. It was two hours before Jackson arrived at the hospital in Selma. He died eight days later.At one of two services for Jackson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. told a crowd of 2,000: “Jimmie Lee Jackson's death says to us that we must work passionately and unrelentingly to make the American dream a reality. His death must prove that unmerited suffering does not go unredeemed.”© 2026 Building Abundant Success!!2026 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

A Grade School Boy Takes on Bullying - "MARNA: Book" 1 by Jason HaugerThe End of Summer has arrived. David, a lonely hearted Elementary kid is looking for a good friend. Standing up to a bully, David unknowingly discovers a beautiful magical girl. Her name is Marna and she has butterfly wings. Marna trusts David to keep her magic secret from humans. Marna and David soar through the air as they go on adventures. David hopes Marna is here to stay, or will she return to the magic? One day Marna gets discovered and the Head Doctor won't let her go. David must help save Marna and set her free. Can David overcome old rivals? In the end, will Marna stay or David be able to let her go?As a boy in the 1st Grade, we had a creative writing assignment. I first wrote Marna then, but she didn't have a name yet. It was about a boy name Jay who discovers a magical girl with butterfly wings as they fly around together. By the time I finished reading my story to the class, half the girls had drawn pictures of the magic girl. I wish I saved those pictures.As an adult, decades later, I was on a dive trip to Bonaire. It was the first time I used my Passport. I was with my wife and her parents. The resort had Monarch Butterflies flying about freely. This is where I got my new inspiration and started writing Marna right then and there. You can say, "Bonaire is the birthplace of Marna." Then I read it to my best friend's step daughter, she was 12 at the time. If you guessed already, she loved it. Then I self the book for a couple years.Then one day my father-in-law, Jim Swanson, became ill all of a sudden. When we visited him at the hospital, we got the devastating news. He was dying of a very painful cancer. It was in his liver and bones. As we stayed by his bedside, I began writing the sequel to Marna, as a way to cope with the stress. Sadly, Jim died before I can even finish the first act. As I progressed the sequel, I read it piece by piece to my test reader. She loved the sequel's first act. Then tragedy struck as her mom became diagnosed with breast cancer. I felt I needed to finish my sequel no matter what.My best friend is more like my brother, so in my heart I adopted his step daughter as my unofficial niece. This made me feel kin to the uncle who wrote "Alice in Wonderland" for his niece. If things turned for the worst, I hope my words might sooth her pain. I finish my book before the year ended, and finished reading it to her. She loved it so much she said, "This needs to be a movie!"I realized, since I finished the sequel, I needed to copyright the first book. After copyrighting, less than two weeks later, I get a call from Dorrance Publishing. I saw it as a sign, this was meant to be. I signed the deal, and have been working hard to promote my book, so my stories can bring happiness to more kids like her, plus I want to finish the project before my niece grows up.AMAZONhttps://mainspringbooks.com/http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/91825msb.mp3

Grade School: How Teachers Can Change Your Life: A Memoir by Anthony Massucci Amazon.com WHO ARE YOUR 5 PEOPLE? FIND YOUR UNEXPECTED HEROES IN GRADE SCHOOL. In Grade School, Anthony Massucci shares a deeply personal and inspiring memoir about the transformative power of unexpected support. His childhood, marked by struggles at home, was illuminated by the unwavering kindness and encouragement of his grade school teachers. Their influence shaped his attitude, spirit, and future and serves as a beacon of hope for anyone facing challenges. At a time when many might retreat inward, Anthony chose to lean into the support system that formed around him. Beyond his mother, siblings, and extended family, his teachers became unexpected caregivers who propelled him forward. Anthony's story reminds us that no matter how alone we may feel during life's challenges— whether it's grief, abuse, divorce, or significant transitions—some people care and are ready to extend their kindness. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM GRADE SCHOOL: THE POWER OF SUPPORT SYSTEMS: Discover how your family, friends, and unexpected mentors can lift you up during difficult times. BEING OPEN TO KINDNESS: Learn to actively recognize and embrace the kindness and care surrounding you—even when you feel isolated. LESSONS FROM TEACHERS WHO TRANSFORM LIVES: Explore how educators can leave a lasting impact through encouragement, wisdom, and genuine belief in their students. BUILDING RESILIENCE IN DIFFICULT TIMES: Find inspiration in Anthony's journey of perseverance and learn how to forge your path forward with the help of others. FINDING YOUR “FIVE PEOPLE”: Reflect on the surprising individuals who may help guide and support you. This concept, often referred to as ‘your five people', suggests that the people you surround yourself with significantly impact your life and can influence your personal growth and success. Grade School is a heartfelt tribute to those who show up when we need them most. Open your heart, and you may be surprised by who steps forward.About the author ANTHONY MASSUCCI is an author and former Bloomberg News and Time Warner AOL Daily Finance journalist and Bloomberg TV broadcaster.

In this episode of our podcast, we dive deep into the eerie history of Rancho Los Amigos, the abandoned hospital that's been both a place of healing and hauntings. We talk about the chilling ghost stories that haunt the halls and how wandering through its decaying corridors might give you more than just a cold spot—like a blast of middle school nostalgia that'll make you cringe and laugh at the same time. But don't get too excited about exploring this place yourself; we also get into the very important lesson of why you should never trespass into a closed-off hospital. Spoiler alert: It's not just the ghosts you need to worry about, it's the cops and critters—and the fact that trespassing is, you know, illegal. Tune in for a blend of history, haunting, and a healthy dose of caution! Interested in learning more about the Windy City Para Fest this Summer in Chicago, IL. June 13-15?

He managed to stay sober for two of his high school years, but then returned to using alcohol and drugs for 12 years more years.Roy sees lots of young men with trauma-related substance misuse come through his outdoor adventure recovery program, but for him, drinking was part of an imagined lifestyle of success. He didn't drink to escape, he drank to have *even more* fun. He fully embraced the identity of "alcoholic" without ever connecting his use to the chaos that his life had become.Roy has now been sober and in a healthy life of recovery for nearly two decades. In that time, he's obtained a Masters of Eeducation, worked with countless community organizations and at-risk youth, and founded his own adventure recovery program, Back2Basics, in picturesque Flagstaff, Arizona.In this conversation, we discuss:what it's like to run into his mom at their local AA meetingthe limitations substance misuse puts on life, and the power of inviting young people into a new world of possibilitieswhy Roy still believes we should "trust the process"RESOURCES:Back2Basics - Roy Duprez's adventure recovery program in Flagstaff, AZThis podcast is part of a nonprofit called Hopestream CommunityLearn about The Stream, our private online community for momsLearn about The Woods, our private online community for dadsFind us on Instagram: @hopestreamcommunityDownload a free e-book, Worried Sick: A Compassionate Guide For Parents When Your Teen or Young Adult Child Misuses Drugs and AlcoholHopestream Community is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and an Amazon Associate.

Jackson, active in the fight for equal rights, had tried multiple times to register to vote in Alabama and was denied each time.When Jimmie Lee Jackson saw his frail 80-year-old grandfather rudely turned away from the registrar's office in 1962 after attempting to register to vote in Marion, Ala. He knew he had to join the civil rights movement.On Feb. 18, 1965, he was among more than 200 people participating in a night march in Marion. Before they had walked a block, they were confronted by state troopers and the police chief, who ordered them to disperse.Jackson and his mother huddled for safety in a café. When Jackson's grandfather entered the café bloodied and beaten, the young man tried to take him to a hospital. But they were quickly shoved back by a crowd of club-swinging troopers and terrified marchers. Another trooper pulled his pistol and shot Jackson in the stomach. It was two hours before Jackson arrived at the hospital in Selma. He died eight days later.At one of two services for Jackson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. told a crowd of 2,000: “Jimmie Lee Jackson's death says to us that we must work passionately and unrelentingly to make the American dream a reality. His death must prove that unmerited suffering does not go unredeemed.”© 2024 Building Abundant Success!!2024 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

Every year, grade school students gather at Nasa’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia to send science experiments into space. Now, these experiments have to be tiny, fitting into a 6×6 centimeter cube, which can either be flown into space in a research rocket or a scientific balloon. After the cubes are brought back to Earth, the students get together to analyze their experiments and see what happened while they were floating up there for 15 or so hours. This year, hundreds of students from the U.S., Canada and Colombia were in Virginia showcasing their experiments.
