Oak Brook-based Ty, Inc. is insisting that the two new dolls they've added to their "TyGirlz
Collection" named "Sweet Sasha" and "Marvelous Malia" are not supposed to represent President
Barack Obama's daughters, no way, no how, nu uh.

Watching Pete Seeger, who turns 90 in May, I had to wonder if, as he stared out over the huge
crowd, he was thinking about everything he went through the blacklisting, the civil rights and
anti-war movements, the years in the wilderness and realizing it was all worth it to be alive at

Shed A Little Light by James Taylor. The harmonies in the intro still give me chills.
Freedom Highway by The Staple Singers, Dr. King's favorite group. I was originally looking for
