What does olawakandi mean?   Is that a kind of marsupial?

Olusegun Michael Olowokandi is a retired professional basketball player. Born in Nigeria and raised in London, he attended college on a basketball scholarship at the University of the Pacific in Stockton.

Pick 1/1 in the 2008 NBA draft. Of course, notice the spelling difference between the NBA player and the Atlas poster, but they're pretty close.

If Ginsburg is living in Israel, doesn't that make it rather difficult for her to commute to DC for Supreme Court sessions?

She has residents in Israel for Summer only, and Xmas break, but resides in DC. I have residents in both Illinois and California and commute there from time.to time

Do most colleges besides the Ivy league and top tier institutions look favorably upon a 4 on the AP us history exam?

In this post:

https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=295047.msg6294886#msg6294886

you write "It's a blog" apparently in reference to this forum.  You also called yourself a "professional blogger".  Does that mean you're paid to post here?  Or do you have your own blog somewhere?  And if the latter, then what is that blog about?

Wait, you had a "spiritual advisor"?  I thought you touted yourself as a "secular donkey"?

Are you aware a "S" avatar stands for "socialist", not "secular"?

Democrats were a party the party of Karl Marx; however, during the time of the Whigs, there weren't any unions around, so they were the People's Party of Agriculture.

After 1900, Labor replaced the People's Party of Agriculture, and became the Progressive Party and input the income tax on the wealthy.

So, I use Secular and Socialist interchangeably.

Gimme A Break
Gimme I know what it takes
Putting a new face on the old one
Ready for anything

Nell, is a maid and have to take care of kids and Father, Chief Kanisky died and she's a single mom

I chose this one due to fact, Gary Coleman and Tutie were left in single parent households

Life is full of strokes, and Gary Coleman had a wealthy upbringing, but had issues due to his height which held him back.  That's why blacks up til then, stayed in white orphanages, due to the fact that it gave them a middle class upbringing.

I don't know where to begin with these posts.  Tongue

Also, on the first post, you should have included a spoiler warning for Season 5 of Gimme a Break.  Now anyone who hasn't watched the show yet is spoiled on the Chief's fate.  Sad

Blacks, in the 80's and 90's; were abandoned by their fathers or mothers and raised by adopted parents or grandparents.

The Kaniskies and the Arnolds, had their mothers die, not in real life, of course, but on the show. So, they were raised by non parents.  Then, in Season 5, Nell, becomes a single mother.  But, she wasn't the kids natural parent. She's singing a song, how she needs a break from being a single mother. Eventhough, the Chief was there, he was doing cop duties, and she had to take care of the family until season 5.

Blacks in general, have had tough upbringings, What's Happening Now, had the mother, Mable absent from the show.  They killed the father off in Cabrini Green, in Good Times.  All recognizing, blacks in general, were raised in single parent households.

She's singing a song, how she needs a break from being a single mother. Eventhough, the Chief was there, he was doing cop duties, and she had to take care of the family until season 5.

OK, but the Kaniskies were white.  In that case, the black woman was in the role of surrogate mother, rather than being the kid.  It would have made more sense for you to bring up the plight of Webster, who was raised by Katherine and George Papadopolis (who would, decades later, end up pleading guilty to lying to the FBI in the Trump-Russia investigation).

The thing is though, in the 80s you had a ton of TV sitcom kids whose fictional parent(s) were dead.  It wasn't just a black phenomenon.  It applied to whites too.  Dead moms were especially common.  In addition to the already mentioned examples, you've got Full House, Who's the Boss, My Two Dads, and Punky Brewster.  (I guess you could count Valerie / The Hogan Family if you like, though that one was caused by the real life exit of the actress from the series.)  Some of those had both parents dead, but I think they all at least had the mom being dead.  80s family sitcoms loved their dead moms, both white and black.
