I suppose it happened specifically in the early 1970s. I see [the] 1964 Civil Rights Act as the turning point, the moment when blacks really came into freedom for the very first time, when the president of the United States signed the bill saying in effect, ‘Yes, we've abused these people, essentially, and that was wrong.’ I know no other nation that has been morally brave enough to do something like that. America did.

I suppose looking back from today, it was a kind of golden age, almost. This was after the war post-50s, 60s. The government had no interest in socially engineering black Americans anywhere. We were pretty much left to our own devices within the boundaries of segregation. So we were limited in that regard, and yet within the community itself, there was an ethos of responsibility and a new possibility in a post-war community. And so the focus was on what we could do for ourselves, and we did many great things. On the street I grew up, a friend down at the end of the block, his name was Melvin Van Peebles — he invented independent filmmaking in America, in the world.

Suppose I was a Jew on the campus of UMass Boston and I had to share public space with these folks, these people may, you know, if they're willing to mob me in broad daylight in the streets of Boston, the way they did, what do you think they're going to do to a Jew on their campus, when they don't think anyone is looking? And that's the thing that I find very, very concerning.

I particularly wanted to say that my father, for I suppose the last 70 years, has given the most remarkable devoted service to The Queen, to my family, and to the country, but also to the whole of the Commonwealth. And as you can imagine, my family and I miss my father enormously. He was a much loved and appreciated figure and apart from anything else I can imagine he would be so deeply touched by the number of other people here and elsewhere around the world and the Commonwealth who also I think, share our loss and our sorrow, my dear Papa was a very special person who I thinkabove all else would have been amazed by the reaction and the touching things that have been said about him, ? he continued.

People keep forgetting that climate change has a body count, especially for people of color, when the rubber hits the road, we're talking about a subway system that's unusable, a car ownership rate that's nowhere near what White, higher-income folks have in New York. So how are we suppose to evacuate in a city that's a mass transit city with the subway shut down, if people don't have cars ?

Those are the one's you don't lose sleep over, honestly, that's not a home-run pitch. He's not suppose to hit that ball out. That was me verus him and he won. Not too many guys can get to that. It's not like I hung a breaking ball or threw right it now the middle, he earned it. Vázquez tied it at 2 on his seventh-inning homer off Collin McHugh, who has allowed just two earned runs in his last 38 2/3 innings, Alex Verdugos tripled when the ball got past a diving Manuel Margot in center in the second and scored on Vázquez’s single. Vázquez made a nice scoop on Devers' thrown and tagged out Joey Wendle as he tried to score on Randy Arozarena's seventh-inning grounder. Cash called it a.

What drives me in sport, I think, is the sport itself, and this is the pinnacle event for weightlifting, as it is for so many sports. And I suppose that’s what’s drawn me here, because anyone I think can train in their own time, but to actually be called to account on the platform. We’ve got one minute to make it all happen. That’s the real test for, I suppose, anyone and weightlifting.

I suppose that the nearer a conception comes towards finality, the nearer the dynamic relation out of which this concept arose, inevitably draws to a close. So it may be surmised, on one hand, to know is to lose. It may be argued, then, tis better to be ignorant, and blissful!
