U.S. poet John Crowe Ransom

A little history lesson to all the lefty's: The KKK created in 1865 Dec 24th In Pulaski, Tennessee, a group of Confederate veterans convenes to form a secret society that they christen the “Ku Klux Klan.” The KKK rapidly grew from a secret social fraternity to a paramilitary force bent on reversing the federal government’s "Reconstruction" era-activities in the South, especially policies that elevated the rights of the local Black population. The name of the Ku Klux Klan was derived from the Greek word kyklos, meaning “circle,” and the Scottish-Gaelic word “clan,” which was probably chosen for the sake of alliteration. Under a platform of philosophized white racial superiority, the group employed violence as a means of pushing back Reconstruction and its enfranchisement of African Americans. Former Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest was the KKK’s first grand wizard. In 1869, he unsuccessfully tried to disband it after he grew critical of the Klan’s excessive violence.

The KKK were created to beat up and/or kill Republicans but there was a small problem. How would they truly know if a white person was a Republican or not? They didn't want to accidentally kill a fellow Democrat by accident. But since 95% of blacks were Republican at the time and blacks were being elected to the House & Senate in the south at that time, it was clear! Hurt, burn, and/or kill blacks! This is why blacks started voting for Democrats! It was Intimidation!

DOG PLAYING WITH BIG BLUE MEDICINE BALL in the INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY PULASKI TENNESSEE Puddin loves to play in the indoor practice field, when it is cold out. I have an ad at the end

Dec 24,

1865, six Confederate veterans, meeting in Pulaski, Tennessee, formed a secret society that they called the Ku Klux Klan. The name combines the Greek word for circle (kyklos) with the Gaelic word clan.

In the aftermath of the Civil War, the KKK quickly morphed from a social fraternity to a violent group that sought to push back against key Reconstruction policies championed by Radical Republicans in Congress — policies that for the first time enfranchised former African-American slaves.

At first, the group focused as much on intimidating Northern “carpetbaggers” as on putting down the newly freed slaves. Members made their own costumes, usually featuring white robes, masks and conical hats. They were designed to induce terror and to hide their identities.

By 1869, the KKK regularly engaged in wanton destruction of property, assaults and murder, prompting Forrest, a moderate, to seek in vain to disband the organization. Masked men shot into houses and burned them, sometimes with the occupants still inside. They drove successful black farmers off their land.

Agents of the Freedmen's Bureau reported that “armed guerrilla warfare killed thousands of Negroes; political riots were staged; their causes or occasions were always obscure, their results always certain: ten to one hundred times as many Negroes were killed as whites.”

Moses McKissack III (May 8, 1879 – December 12, 1952) was an architect. He had his architecture firm McKissack Company (1905-22) and was active in Tennessee and Alabama. In a partnership with his brother Calvin Lunsford McKissack, they founded the architecture firm McKissack & McKissack in 1922.

He was born in Pulaski, Tennessee. He had six brothers. His father Gabriel Moses McKissack II was a carpenter and builder, and his mother was Dolly Ann (née Maxwell).

He apprenticed in construction drawings for 5 years. He attended classes at Springfield College and obtained architectural degrees through a correspondence course.

He built houses in Decatur, Alabama; Mount Pleasant, Tennessee; and Columbia, Tennessee. His first document client was Granberry Jackson Sr., the Dean of Architecture and Engineering at Vanderbilt University. He designed many other residences for faculty at Vanderbilt University. The firm’s first major project was the design of the Fisk University Carnegie Library. Its cornerstone was laid in 1908 by William Howard Taft. Major projects designed by him included the main campus building for the Turner Normal and Industrial School for Negroes, dormitories for Roger Williams University, and Lane College.

He married Miranda P. Winter (1912) together they had six sons.

The McKissack brothers became two of the first registered architects in the state.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed him to the White House Conference on Housing Problems. They received a large federal government contract to build and design the 99th Pursuit Squadron (Tuskegee Airmen) Air Base. The Air Base contract was the largest federal contract ever awarded to an African American company. The brothers were each awarded the Spaulding Medal by the National Negro Business League.

The McKissack family helped build the city of Nashville, The McKissack Park neighborhood, the McKissack Park, and McKissack Middle School. Several McKissack buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the US National Park Service. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence #alphaphialpha

What Happened in Arkansas?

On the afternoon of April 25th, people across Arkansas could feel that something terrible was about to happen. Temperatures had soared into the 70s and 80s by 1 PM CDT with a supercell showing signs of potentially becoming tornadic in northern Pike County which eventually spread southwest over Saline County. Then at 2:03 pm, a Tornado Warning for Little Rock (Pulaski Co.) was issued....and it only got worse from there! At 2:18 pm an incredibly destructive tornado abruptly spun up just five miles west/southwest of Interstates 430 & 630 prompting emergency dispatchers to declare an official 'Tornado Emergency.' On March 28th, 2020 a powerful tornado struck Pulaski County and Lonoke counties in Arkansas. Rated EF3/165 mph on the Fujita scale at its peak intensity, it left an impressive 34-mile trail of destruction between Little Rock and Cabot. In total there were 2,700 structures impacted with some particularly severe damage to the top floors of apartment buildings as well as leveled homes and churches around Napa Valley Drive near Interstate 430 and Jacksonville. Sadly 1 person was killed whilst 50 people had to be admitted into hospital for their injuries caused by the catastrophic winds; power outages affected over 60,000 households across both regions too - a stark reminder of how quickly Mother Nature can change things if we are not prepared properly! Most concerning however is that Burns Park alone lost 10 thousand trees due to this storm system's formidable gusts. On the afternoon of April 11th, two separate supercells spawned tornadoes in Arkansas. The first tracked from Wynne to Turrell and across the Mississippi River into Tennessee. This tornado was at least an EF3 strength, with fatal consequences for several individuals as homes were obliterated and trees uprooted or snapped along its path. Five miles southeast Hickory Plains a weaker storm caused destruction by tipping over a truck on Interstate 55 while between Alco & Fifty-Six (Stone County), an EF2 tornado lifted roofs off buildings and even shifted houses away from their foundations before it dissipated minutes later. This event was devastating for many, featuring nearly a thousand reports of tornadoes, damaging wind, and large hail concentrated in the north/east region around Arkansas. At least 120 tornadoes were reported with nearly a dozen being rated EF3 or higher - making them particularly destructive forces. The most dangerous tornado (EF4) traveled 43 miles from Ottumwa to Iowa City while an equally hazardous EF3 covered 86 miles south of Hornsby to east Hohenwald resulting in 9 fatalities. Additionally, on April 1st history was made when another rare EF3 tornado developed which tied as Delaware's strongest ever recorded!   Sources: THX News, The White House & The National Weather Service.

It presents a risk to staff members, management, customers and anyone that might check out the site for any factor. Exposed garbage and refuse product increases the threat of accidents through direct exposure, tripping and other threats. When you rent a dumpster, your work area is automatically without these risks of piled-up trash and everybody who goes there is safer.
