Just did a gene test on my kid and found out he's part black. Any chance you could do one of these on him? He's pretty smart and would really get a kick out of it.


Sorry about that. Your wife was too fine.

Morgan Freeman is reportedly working on producing a Bass Reeves miniseries for HBO.

I see news stories from 2015 but not much since. I hope it happens.

FYI: I noticed in reading about this that almost no one consistently spells marshal correctly. One L only.

Were you the kid in grade school that told this to your teacher during black history month?

Yes. I will do a Hispanic, Asian, and Native American month.


I also have plans on doing prominent whites. Since the achievements of whites are so overencompassing of different worldviews and social systems, I decided to mention them by historical period rather than an assortment of racial backgrounds.

Nice job volod and thanks for not talking about engineering

To the haters: if your going to complain about "black culture" why get mad when someone is trying to promote good models?

Love the story of the Tuskagee Airmen. Didn't know about them but saw a show about them on the History Channel. They were awesome.

Bass Reeves is one of my favorite lesser known historical characters. A real law and order guy. I have hopes someone will make a movie/mini series about him.
