Journalist Bill Moyers died this week at the age of 91. Before his journalism career he worked for Lyndon Johnson and became his press secretary at age 31.
Moyers was the last surviving individual to have witnessed the swearing in of LBJ on Air Force One after President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas.
The arrow points to Moyers in back.

#BillMoyers, who served as #press secy to President #LyndonJohnson & then, for >40 years, as a broadcast #journalist known for bringing ideas—both timely & timeless—to TV, died June 26 at a hospital in Manhattan. He was 91.
 The cause was complications from prostate #cancer, said his son, William Cope Moyers. Long before he became a grandee of #PublicTelevision, the #Texas-born Moyers was a top aide &, by many accounts, a surrogate son to Johnson.

The Zhi Zhu post (attached) is one of the most important messages of the past week. Franklin Roosevelt saw the Hitler threat long before the American public did. FDR needed to do the groundwork for American intervention, which, by the way, started long before the bombing of Pearl Harbor. US history is filled with major examples. Right now, according to public opinion polling, the American public is not with us on Gaza. We need Capitol Hill "leadership" to lead on this issue and many others and we positively are not getting it. It has been altogether too convenient to just slide along while Bernie Sanders says what needs to be said. Young or not so young, we need a new group of Democratic politicians who do not leave their spines at home.

Thank you #HeatherCoxRichardson for putting things into perspective...
" On August 6th, Dr. King and Mrs. Boynton were guests of honor as President Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Recalling the outrage of Selma, Johnson said, this right to vote is the basic right without which all others are meaningless. It gives people, people as individuals, control over their own destinies."
Let's not forget that of all the rights Americans enjoy, the #RightToVote is the most consequential!

... mais représente un formidable progrès pédagogique."

Cf Psdt USA Lyndon Johnson : " 'le monde ne possède qu'une fraction des enseignants dont il a besoin.' "

"Avec la massification de l'enseignement, trouver des professeurs qualifiés se révèlent de plus en pllus compliqué, surtout si l'on considère les questions de rémunération."
