I hope to mentor young people (of color, or not) ...as a retired teacher..whenever I see a young person with that spark and drive? I am willing to give THEM my time and energy. That's the future, everybody..

Yes you want to push the ines who have the noticeable drive is but the ones who really need the help, Is the ones who have to work much harder and may not have, in plain sight talent. So although you can help some help the one who is really struggling and the one's who are unnoticed.

A job well done U.S. Congressman Cummings. This interview was very moving. It's amazing how public libraries are here for a democracy to help out a lot of people to seek knowledge. The message that people should take is "don't judge the book by it's cover!" It's all in the way that you treat and think about people that drives their behavior. Rest In Peace

I did NOT create those children! Did the mother NOT KNOW what having sex with a man would do? Did they choose to 'get together' for fun and then find they have more responsibility they can handle? Will they be like my daughter who got impregnated by a 'stranger' so she could have a child to fulfill her life, found out it didn't work, abused him, beat him, ridiculed and demeaned him and then got mad at the court who awarded ME guardianship when I FINALLY took a stand? Should I be given the responsibility of every woman's stupid decision???

Black people problems are caused by lack of adequate education and knowing financial strategies. There is money in black neighborhoods, many others come there open businesses and go back to their suburban communities. We have to take responsibility for our areas of short- comings and plan to improve.

I would wish that President Trump was at the funeral and show up at the funeral and give a good speech on kindness it'll let bygones be bygones and talk nice and show respect to Isaiah Cummings if he would do that that would bring the Nation super back together that will bring our nation together and great unity in love because we must go on and move forward as a nation as human beings and learn from our past and give give our nation a new beginning I really pray that he was show up in give a very nice speech that is my prayer to have the nation healed from all past sins and pray for Unity in our nation and our world I am making this comment Tim Langdon no one else so please join me in a prayer that we would be Unity United as one in America United States of America because we must move forward
