- Bradford King Thumb Correction Facility 3225 John Conley Drive Lapeer, Michigan 48446 email @ Jpay.com A Convicts Reposte I have watched the events in our nation, of late, and that brings to mind a line from a 60's song, "Hate your next door neighbor but don't forget to say grace." Looking back at my experience of the 60's and 70's, I now wonder, are we in reverse. Voices seem to be that of hate, degradation, and racism. This message is spread by the very people ...

- Bradford King Thumb Correction Facility 3225 John Conley Drive Lapeer, Michigan 48446 email @ Jpay.com American Paradox One day I happened upon this quote, the origins of which I do not know: "I cannot tolerate the fact that a man should be judged not for what he is but because of the group he happens to belong." Reflecting on this, it brings to light that (man for centuries) has more often than not been judging one another predominantly by race not individuality. Given the diversit...

- Bradford King Thumb Correction Facility 3225 John Conley Drive Lapeer, Michigan 48446 email @Jpay.com Follow Dreams In the past, more exact a little more than 50 years ago, I wrote a college paper about a Langston Hughes poem. That poem had an unknown affect on me throughout the rest of my life. I had no idea how much until experiencing recent politics. As I looked at my past the obvious is glaring that at times I forgot the true meaning of those short but poignant lines. The obvious example ...

At some point I acknowledge that a change in point of view is necessary. Without a change in my view point, I will fail to adjust and live life, instead of soing time.
