My neighbor. Has some medical issues, Veteran, has a stay at home wife and a special needs daughter, goes to work every day. regular guy doing what regular folks do. Didn't know him but his father was a preacher/deacon or some such in a local church, Vet, regular fellow too from what folks around here say.

Willee O'Ree. First black player in the NHL, works with kids (of all colors) since his retirement, ambassador for the sport for years.

Couple of guys I worked with over the years. One that worked on the tugs which was pretty rough for a black fella.

Sgt Reginald Veasy, Spec 4 Stan Davis, Spec 4 Anthony Brown, I served with these fellows, and I’m proud to count them among my friends.
Funny this pops up. Just last night I was talking to Wifey about some of these guys. I gotta wonder what they think of this current stuff.

No different from anybody else who lives a decent life. Might give a bit of extra credit to blacks who stand up against peer pressure to adopt the attitudes and behavior of entitled victimhood, blaming racism for everything. Historically, the Tuskeegee Airmen and 54th Massachussets come to mind, and several others. The black female mathematicians in the NASA space program in the 60s. The movie Hidden Figures was inspiring.

Ted on my bridge building crew. He's 60+, works his ass off all day in this heat, and is as a respectful man as I've ever met. His respect and decency is returned many times be me.

Almost lifelong friend, met 50 years ago when we were in the Navy, have been friends ever since. He drove 1000 miles to attend our wedding; worked hard all his life, never compromised his ideals, raised 5 daughter, put them all through college and they are all doing very well for themselves; another friend's father, born dirt-poor, worked hard all his life, ended up with a big farm and a controlling interest in a large farm-equipent dealership, raised a bunch of kids who have done well, two guys I work with right now, military veterans, both do more than their share at work and have helped me out considerably since I came aboard, have raised hard-working, polite kids; didn't know any growing up, there weren't any in rural, northern NY at that time..
