#BacktoSchool #tdih 1966 Grenada, Miss. school board postponed school rather than open doors to African American students who had registered to attend the two “white schools.” Read ⬇️a daily log from CRMvet. zinnedproject.org/news/tdih/gren…
CRMvet log from schools opening, 10 days later: "Sept. 12. A huge white mob surrounds Grenada's schools. Equipped with 2-way radios, they bar all approaches. Scouts in pick-up trucks search for Negro students (grades 1-12) coming to school and direct the mob to attack them. " 1/6
"There are few police in evidence & they do nothing to halt the violence. Some cars carrying Negro children manage to drop the kids off, but others are blocked. The majority of the 250 or so students are walking to school in 1's and 2's. . ." 2/6

Let’s make a #thread about what @zeevs posted and proposed a few hours ago in the #PHP #internals.
There was a little confusion about what was proposed, despite his words being quite clear. This is going to be VERY long, for I have no idea how to sum up things. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
🔽🔽🔽
@zeevs First, let’s rewind the timelines a little, and have a look at history. I hate the past and history, but as pure facts, it sometimes is needed.
@zeevs PHP emerged in its raw, primitive form, circa 1994. It’s now 25 years old. The first idea was to get rid of CGI backends, crashing segfaults, maintenance nightmare, not suited for a web world. All that in the form of scripts, parsed through a slower but safer interpreter.

#Thread Senator @HawleyMO With Perhaps the Greatest America First Speech Ever Given:

"I for one am hopeful, because in the heart of this nation American strength has not failed, it is only waiting to be recognized, waiting to be called upon, waiting to be given voice." 1/
@HawleyMO "The great divide of our time is not between Trump supporters and Trump opponents...the great divide of our time is between the political agenda of the leadership elite and the great and broad American Middle, the middle of our society." 2/
@HawleyMO "For years the politics of both Left & Right have been informed by a political consensus that reflects the interests not of the American Middle, but of a powerful upper class & their cosmopolitan priorities. This class lives in U.S. but they identify as citizens of the world." 3/

GOD, His people & The World’s Kingdoms/Empires

- What is to come.
- The Gospel of the Kingdom.

* Missed the Rapture? What to Expect.

Ever since God created the Earth in Genesis 1, He willed it to be ruled by Man whom He created; hence Adam was the first world governor & emperor and he was so, under God.
But by disobedience to God & obedience to Satan, Adam changed masters; and though the governing of the earth was still through human agency, Satan became the god of this world’s systems (2 Cor. 4:4).

Ok. It’s time to go into Joshua’s memory box and tell his story #thread
Joshua was very much a rainbow baby 🌈 and we were so excited and over the moon when I finally made it into the second trimester. (Alex and I are both big rugby fans!)
I was working as a 1st year Registrar in A&E when I suddenly broke my waters at 24 weeks. I was transferred to Southampton @UHSFT who have a specialist level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. They were wonderful, and did everything they could to stop my labour over Father’s Day.
