There is a present unmet need for fixed route public transportation in Delta Township along regularly scheduled routes. At the present time, most Delta Township residents do not have reasonable access to public transportation on a bus system which will reliably get them to their jobs, educational institutions, and friends in the Greater Lansing Metropolitan areas of Lansing and East Lansing.

When used correctly, social networks can be a very effective tool. They can help you meet people in your field, and advance your career. They can help you with promotion of things you want to get out to a broad audience. They can help you reconnect with people you lost contact with. There are many positives that can come from proper use of social networks.

It’s your fault. It’s all your fault. Everything wrong in your life is entirely your fault. Thank goodness for that! If it wasn’t your fault, then what control could you possibly have over making it better? But it’s not politically correct to write these things. If you are unemployed, it’s because of a lousy boss, the bad economy or terrible political leadership. If you have diabetes, it’s because of genes you inherited or the lack of money or time to eat properly. We are conditioned to believe that it is decidedly NOT our fault. We’re told it’s never our fault.

It doesn’t matter if you’re White, Black, Brown, Yellow, Red or any combination of our “Hue” man race.  It does matter if we don’t have a conversation about race.  Racism is another ball of wax, but for purposes of examining our current state of the current socio-economic challenges, we have to look at race for what it is:  fear of what is not known.

Slow, steady and stylish are three words that best describe Andrew Dosunmu’s latest offering “Mother of George.”

 

For Dosunmu, a Nigeria-born director, New York is once again the city of choice. It’s where he filmed his last movie “Restless City” and it’s in Brooklyn we follow the life of Adenike (Danai Gurira), a Nigerian newlywed who resorts to drastic measures after she discovers that she’s unable to conceive a child.
