Sammiscribbles Weekend Writing Prompt

How to eradicate the indelible words on children’s minds as they are constantly bombarded by untruths and hate is a problem for every parent. Whether some people choose to follow in possibly their parents’ outdated philosophies’ footsteps—never questioning or pausing to think for themselves—or read, research, and explore new ideas is a choice; a daily choice to make.

SoCS 5-6-23

I just watched a movie on Netflix named “Mudbound”. It was powerful and depressing and you know what? I’m tired. I’m just tired of all of the violence put upon people that don’t match up in skin color. Just plain tired and sad. It’s been going on forever and nothing changes.

The song was inspired by various events in Cooke’s life, most prominently when he and his entourage were turned away from a whites-only motel in Louisiana. Cooke felt compelled to write a song that spoke to his struggle and of those around him, and that pertained to the Civil Rights Movement and African Americans.

Happy Cinco de Mayo

Mexico National Flower

Cinco de Mayo marks the anniversary of the 1862 victory by Mexican troops over invading French forces at the Battle of Puebla, originated in Mexico, the day is more popular in the US! The triumph over the better equipped and more numerous French troops was an enormous emotional boost for the Mexican soldiers led by Gen. Ignacio Zaragoza. 6,000 French troops stormed the Mexican city of Heróica Puebla de Zaragoza to bring it under French rule. The Mexican soldiers were outnumbered, but they fiercely fought back.

Flaming Fans

Joe was the typical fanatic when it came to watching his son compete as a track and field participant and his son, Mike was an exceptional runner. Watching from the sideline it was hard for Joe not to yell encouragement for Mike. The relevance of some typical parents’ comments bothered Joe. He believed in being positive only. The cumbersome presence of unruly adults required a few coaches to require protection! The results of these childish adult actions seemed a furphy reported in the local news, but Joe and the participants knew it to be true.
