Walter Rodney left a political and academic legacy to the African world that few have matched. Rodney was a tireless scholar and activist who undertook a number of struggles throughout his lifetime. Rodney was a student activist as an undergraduate at the University of the West Indies in Jamaica. After earning his doctorate in England and teaching for some time as a professor in Tanzania, Rodney returned to Jamaica. There he wasted no time in educating the masses on African history, while also criticizing the failures of the Jamaican government to alleviate the suffering of the black masses on the island. For this Rodney was banned from Jamaica.He then turned to Tanzania, where he produced his most well-known book "How Europe Underdeveloped." Rodney eventually returned to Guyana and he joined the Working People's Alliance. The WPA was organized with the intention of uniting the working people of Guyana and to challenge the dictatorship of Forbes Burnham. In 1980, Rodney was killed. Many feel Rodney was assassinated by the government for his activities."The Political and Intellectual Legacy of Walter Rodney" examines both Rodney's work as an academic and a political figure.

How Far Would You Go to Honor a Code? Honor. Courage. Commitment. These are the pillars of United States Marine Corps values. So why Sgt. Rodney M. Davis lunged atop that enemy grenade at the expense of his own life on Sept. 6, 1967 is the quintessential question that has haunted not only those who stood closest to him at that critical moment, but his own family and friends for over fifty years now. Why would a young African-American with a beautiful wife and two infant children eagerly awaiting his return home from Vietnam commit such a noble and courageous, yet sacrificial act? And for Marines he barely knew if at all? And for a country that often treated him like a second-class citizen at the time? was a brave man and a good Marine. My grandfather always told me that if Davis] had not jumped on that grenade, every Marine in that trench would have been seriously injured or killed. My grandfather believed that he would have died that day. My mother would have been an orphan at the age of one, and I would have never known my grandfather. In a time when the United States was ravaged by racial tension, I wonder what kind of bond men form while fighting a war, for him to have saved the lives of a bunch of white men - including a Texan officer - that he knew for a short period of time? Davis] was a modern-day hero, and the kind of Marine I strive to live up to." Steven Brackeen Turunc, the eldest grandson of Davis' late platoon commander, John Brackeen. Turunc graduated from Officer Candidates School in November 2014 and is currently serving on active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps. That Davis was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor at the White House on March, 26, 1969 did little to assuage the heartbreak felt by his grieving family and the many friends he left behind. But looking after his own had always been Davis' calling. This is his story.

Both animals and man exhibit competition for sexual reproduction, power, and geographic space through flagging and parading. Support is attracted. Competitors are warned. Groups created by man to secure power create images, or flags, which represent them. "Can We All Get Along?" Rodney King is a visual essay that quilts flags into multiple combinations in order to lament the inability of the diverse tribes of humanity to live in peace.
