Black People

Yes Dr. King, Blacks Have A Place In The Present & Future

MLK Day Cyber Birthday Card from the Computer Underground Railroad, J. Nayer Hardin, Founder, Conductor.

This MLK Day we are celebrating when Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. thanked Gene Roddenberry and Nichelle Nichols for their work done on the television series Star Trek. Dr. King noted how the series did something evolutionary for its day. The 60's science fiction television program showed Black people in the future as a vital part of the team.

The card is based on selected readings from the book BLACK PEOPLE AND THEIR PLACE IN WORLD HISTORY by Dr. Leroy Vaughn, MD, MBA, Historian combined with historic material from Nichols and Dr. King.

"It was in Star Trek that Nichols gained popular recognition by being one of the first black women featured in a major television series not portraying a servant; her prominent supporting role as a bridge officer was unprecedented. During the first year of the series, Nichols was tempted to leave the show, as she felt her role lacked significance; however, a conversation with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., changed her mind. She has said that King personally encouraged her to stay on the show, telling her that he was a big fan of the series. He said she "could not give up" because she was playing a vital role model for black children and young women across the country, as well as for other children who would see African Americans appearing as equals.[5][6][7] It is also often reported that Dr. King added that "Once that door is opened by someone, no one else can close it again." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nichelle_Nichols

Yes Dr. King, we have a place in the future. For example, the creator of the personal computer, IBM's Dr. Mark Dean. It's in Dr. King's honor that a new community based computer training to bridge the digital divide has begun in South Central Los Angeles, the same style the railroad did in the 1990's in NYC where over 3,000 folks became computer literate.

You were right Dr. King that folks were integrated into a burning house, however, it's because everyone is needed to put out the moral and physical fires evil has started. Only truth can set us free.

This presentation of cyber readings is in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King's 2012 birthday. They are from the Black history book BLACK PEOPLE AND THEIR PLACE IN WORLD HISTORY by Dr. Leroy Vaughn, MD, MBA, Historian

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING! I'VE RESTARTED THE COMPUTER TRAINING DONE IN HARLEM, THIS TIME IN SOUTH CENTRAL LOS ANGELES!

Enjoy.

From the book that is causing change in people's lives, BLACK PEOPLE AND THEIR PLACE IN WORLD HISTORY, by Dr. Leroy Vaughn, Foreward by Brad Pye, Jr.

"Leroy William Vaughn M.D., M.B.A. is not only one of theworld’s renowned ophthalmologists, but also one of the leading authorities onBlack history. Basketball is Michael Jordan’s game. Black history andophthalmology are Dr. Vaughn’s games. Dr. Vaughn’s medical credentials and expertise as a diabetic eye specialist and as a remarkable surgeon make him one of the leadingpractitioners in his field. Hisknowledge as an historian is equally as outstanding.

Dr. Leroy Vaughn

MD, MBA, Historian, Humanitarian

Honorary Nigerian, African Chief

Dr. Vaughn’s patients swear by him for his medicalskills. Historians marvel at him becauseof his talents as a researcher and writer on the subject of Black history. As a lecturer, he’s one of the most in-demandspeakers in the nation. Like magic, Dr.Vaughn can rattle off facts on Black history like an orator recites a speech hehas practiced on delivering for days. When it comes to reciting the roles Black people have played in worldhistory, Dr. Vaughn has dazzled some of the most learned minds in America.

Confirmation of this fact can be found on the pages of thisin-depth study on the subject. Forinstance, did you know that a Black man with only a sixth grade education namedGarrett Morgan invented the first traffic signal, the gas mask, andmarketed the G. A. Morgan Refining Cream, which was the first hairstraightening product? Did you know thatGarrett Morgan made so much money from his hair cream that he was able topurchase an automobile? In fact, traffic congestion while driving his new carwas motivation for Morgan’s traffic signal invention.

Did you know that in 1721 an African slave named Onesimustaught his “master” the age-old African technique for smallpox inoculation inwhich a pustule from an infected person was ruptured with a thorn and then usedto puncture the skin of a normal person? Did anyone ever tell you that the original Haitians were called theArawaks or Tainos before Christopher Columbus and that they were very generousand could swim long distances? Did youknow that George Franklin Grant, a Black man, invented the golf tee in 1898 andpatented it a year later? Grant, one ofthe first two African American graduates of the Harvard Dental School, took aliking to golf. He invented the golf teebecause he didn’t like the way golfers had to mix dirt and water to make a mudmound for teeing off. Did anyone evertell you that a Black man named John Lee Love invented the Love Pencil Sharpener in 1897, the kind most first-graders take to school today?

Did anyone ever tell you that Dr. Charles Richard Drew wasthe discoverer of successful blood plasma storage techniques that made bloodbanks possible? In 1941, the AmericanRed Cross appointed Dr. Drew as the director of its first blood bank. Did anyone ever tell you that the collectivecontributions of Black Americans to science is so extensive that it is notpossible to live a full day in any part of the United States, or the world forthat matter, without sharing in the benefits of their contributions in suchfields as: biology, chemistry, physics, space and nuclear science? Well, if you didn’t know these things, thenkeep on reading, and Dr. Vaughn will tell you about these and hundreds of otherfacts about Black history.

Other inventions patented by African Americans include thefolding lawn chair, the doorstop, the ironing board with collapsible legs, andthe bottle cap. In fact, there’s a longlist of inventions made by Blacks during an age dominated by Whites. If Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal,Kobe Bryant, and Elgin Baylor had been born in the 18^th or 19^thcentury, we would never have known their names because of the concerted effortnot to acknowledge the accomplishments of Black people.

Dr. Vaughn didn’t just decide to write a book on Blackhistory. This has been his passion andhis life’s mission! Academically, Dr.Vaughn has the knowledge and the talents to make his life’s work a reality onthe pages of this book. Dr. Vaughn wasrooted and grounded in Black history as a student at Morehouse College in Atlanta, where he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree and graduated Phi BetaKappa in 1969 after a two-year premedical study tour at the University of Vienna in Austria. In addition to Dr.Vaughn, Morehouse College has produced some of the most prominent and learned scholarsin the world including Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., U.S. Surgeon General Dr.David Satcher, and Dr. Charles Finch. Dr. Benjamin Mays, one of the world’s most noted educators and a mentorto Dr. King, was president of Morehouse College from 1950 until 1967, and setan extremely high standard for all Morehouse graduates.

Medically speaking, Dr. Vaughn is tops in his field. He received his medical degree from Wayne State University in Detroit, where he also received the Franklin C. McClainAward in 1972 as the most outstanding Black medical student in the nation. He interned at the Department of Medicine in Chapel Hill, NC, and completed his ophthalmology fellowship and researchtraining at Harvard University’s Massachusetts Eye and Ear Hospital in 1979. Dr. Vaughn was certified as a Diplomat of theAmerican Board of Ophthalmology in 1978 after scoring in the top threepercentile nationally on the written examination. Moreover, he was named as an AssociateExaminer for the American Board of Ophthalmology’s oral examinations in 1984.

In addition to a brilliant scholar, Dr. Vaughn is also acommunity leader. For giving his timeand his talents to the community, he was honored by the late Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, L.A. County Supervisor Kenneth Hahn, the State of California, andthe Aesculapian Honorary Society et al.

Dr. Vaughn’s book should not only be required reading forBlacks, but for all people. Most ofsociety still believes what historian Arnold Toynbee wrote in his 1934 historybook: “It will be seen that when we classify mankind by color, the only primaryrace that has not made a creative contribution to any civilization is the Blackrace.” Dr. Vaughn sets the recordstraight on this lie and on so many other untruths about Black history.

Vernon E. Jordan better known as a civil rights fighter,businessman, lawyer, and “first friend” of President Bill Clinton vividlyillustrates the essence of Dr. Vaughn’s book when he wrote in his book entitled“Vernon Can Read! A Memoir:” “Black people have done wonderful things for thiscountry (saved its soul, in fact), and we have been an example to the world inthe process. That should never beforgotten, even as we continue to press ahead, in our many and varied ways,toward our future. If we did so muchwhen we had so little, think of what we can do now that we have so much more.”

Covered in Dr. Vaughn’s book are the Ancient Period, AfterChrist, After 1492 (Columbus), After 1776 (Independence), After 1865 (slavery),and After 1900 (20^thCentury). If you really want to know about “Black People and Their Place in WorldHistory” then you should rush out and obtain a copy of Dr. Vaughn’s masterpiecebefore the sun goes down."

"I'm Sorry Sir You Don't Know Me"

2011-11-03T13:20:00.000-07:00

Quotes from this speech:
when you go to jail for a righteous cause you can accept the inconveniences of jail with a kind of inner sense of calm and inner sense of peace

I'm gonna continue with all of my might with all of my energy and actions
to oppose the abominable , evil, and unjust war in Vietnam

we must to continue to stand up and we must continue to follow the dictates of our conscience even if that means breaking unjust laws.
non cooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as cooperation with good and i do not plan to cooperate with evil at any point.

somebody said to me DR King don't you think you are hurting your leadership by taking a stand against the war in Vietnam. Aren't people who once respected you will lose respect for you and aren't you hurting the budget of your organization and i had to look at that person and say I'm sorry sir but you don't know me.
leadership by looking at the southern Christan leadership budget or taking a poll of the majority opinion.
Ultimately a genuine leader is not a searcher of consensus but he is a molder of consensus.
and on some positions
coward asks the question is it safe
expediency asks the question is it politic
vanity asks the question is it popular
but conscience asks the question is it right
and there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe nor politic nor popular but he must do it because conscience tells him it is right.

---Martin Luther King at Santa Rita
produced by Colin Edwards.

Nayer Hardin of the Computer Underground Railroad, a cyberdivision of the original that uses computers and other technology to help peoplebe free.

Thegreat American journalist BradPye, Jr. wrote in the book’s Foreward “Dr. Vaughn Leroy William VaughnM.D., M.B.A. is not only one of the world’s renowned ophthalmologists, but alsoone of the leading authorities on Black history. Basketball is MichaelJordan’s game. Black history and ophthalmologyare Dr. Vaughn’s games. Dr. Vaughn’s medical credentials and expertise as a diabeticeye specialist and as a remarkable surgeon make him one of the leadingpractitioners in his field. His knowledge as an historian is equally asoutstanding.

Dr.Vaughn’s patients swear by him for his medical skills. Historians marvel at himbecause of his talents as a researcher and writer on the subject of Black history. As a lecturer, he’s oneof the most in-demand speakers in the nation. Like magic, Dr. Vaughn can rattleoff facts on Blackhistory like an orator recites a speech he has practiced on delivering fordays. When it comes to reciting the roles Black people have played in world history, Dr. Vaughn has dazzledsome of the most learned minds in America.” …Confirmation of this fact can befound on the pages of this in-depth study on the subject.”

The bookis a breathtaking journey through world history with a focus on little knownBlack history, like who created civilization, who was the ancient woman pharaoh,what happened on Black Wall Street that is still being felt, who was PaulCuffee, Lieutenant Willa Beatrice Brown and what made them so special, vitaltruth that is missing in much of our society. The book eloquently conveyshow much humanity has and can overcome.

Dr.Vaughn has been studying Black history with a passion since the ‘60’s. The work began as five-minute history lessonsat the end of weekly newscasts on KPFK radio. Subsequently, the LosAngeles Sentinel newspaper agreed to publish these history articles weekly in asection entitled "Our African Heritage."

Subsequently, the Los Angeles Sentinel newspaper agreed to publish these history articles weekly in a section entitled "Our African Heritage. A band of angels from Dr. Vaughn's family and friends did what had to be done to make sure his work, and the book is a step in the process, reaches the people who need it. "They would not be acting like that if they understood their history." Dr. Vaughn's history lessons are full of truth and understanding.

Part of the broadcast conversation from the Live Discussion Room is featured between readings. Because the most if not all of the material is pre recorded, it gives participants the luxury of replay. There is a lot of heart touching material so reactions may be strong, as many have been.

To get the webeos (web videos) for air, artists are encourage to set up and run their own Youtube channels. The railroad is helping them achieve that with future how to blog entries. Readings harvested from webeos are then cross posted on Youtube's BPATPIWH channel.

From Nov. 5th to the 11th is the time to finalize webeo scheduling and determine if any live readings are needed to fill in the blanks.
