Amos Brown's power of the mike and of the pen has gained him much prestige and influence in Indianapolis. And so it goes!

Reimburse the City for the costs of Black Expo? Are you kidding? The City underwrites a substantial part of its annual budget. The CIB waives the normal fees charged to any other organization that rents space at the convention center to put on public exhibitions. For years, it handed large annual grants to the organization. The pandering by the state and city to this organization, which serves no other purpose than to promote racial disharmony in the city, is reprehensible. Yet it goes on and one year after year. If any other organization sponsored an event that brought so much trouble and expense to the city, it would have been run out of town long ago.

Why doesn't Black Expo reimburse The City of Indianapolis for all of the extra POLICE and Emergency Management resources that are required to keep the mayhem to a minimum????

-The Indy 500, the Largest Spectator Event In The World doesn't require this kind of POLICE and emergency management services.....and it brings money to the city and people are NOT afraid to go to work downtown during the 500, like they are during Black Expo! Can anyone explain?

Amos Brown is, in my humble opinion, one of the most ignorant people in Indianapolis...and he's had a microphone since I was in high school laughing at his ignorance!

Appointing an ignorant person to an education roundtable???? That is a wild thought!

BTW can anyone tell me if Amos Brown has a diploma from any accredited school?

Interesting essay, as so many of your are. I wonder what is the basis for your charge that it was Glenda Ritz's office that `leaked' these emails. I had read that they were released on the basis of a FOI request (although I am curious how the AP reporter thought of making this specific request).

The Zinn comments by Daniels were interesting and seems to be in keeping with an attitude of America makes no mistakes. If there are incidents in our history that do not line up with the Rah-Rah History, then do not allow it to be taught.

The history I learned back in the 60's had a friendly encounter at Plymouth Rock, and then silence until Custer, on the fate of the Native Americans. Zinn provides a fill in the blanks of the all out assault on Native Americans - Shock and Awe in the 18th and 19th centuries.
