The Power of One
I LOVE the idea of this! We all have gifts and resources to give the world. Here are some of my favorite examples of the Power of One:
Dr. Salk figured out how to cure Polio. Instead of patening the cure and gaining BILLIONS - he gave it to the world to help people. WOW!
This was a student protest in Beijing. No one knows who this guy was, but MAN he made a statement!!!!
I LOVE This! Using gifts to help people!!!! Haircuts are life changing!

42 - The first Black man in Baseball
This week we discussed early Slavery in America. Someone brought up how White Southerners made Medical Reports declaring African Americans as inferior. That is crazy to me, and thankfully has been proven wrong. White people and Black people are the same medically, but a Black person has more Melanin in their skin.
This conversation made me think of the movie 42. The story of Jackie Robinson the first black man in Baseball (MLB). He broke down so many barriers, and had to deal with so much racism. It was the 1940s when Jin Crow ruled. The movie focuses on the racism he had to deal with. It makes you wonder - could you handle all that he did? I think no. It was in his contract not to get upset if someone spits on you. What?!?!
