Tulips have the creditability without the scholarly reference at times.
But still has a strong intellectual base along with a solid base following. Tulips are very beautiful perennials that come in colors of Yellow, Pink, Orange, and Red that bloom every spring. The case of Reparation written by TA-Nehisi Coates who is a graduate from Howard University, Ta-Nehisi has received the George Polk award in commentary 2015, also was awarded for non-fiction writer. Coates is a very powerful and talent journalist, with great writing skills that his words jump off the page at you. Coates wants to make sure you are informed on the issues at hand with the African American community. He achieves excellent journalism at every turn, and the Atlantic is a solid Magazine.

flower.

Daisies are simply wonderful spring flower with their even petals that make a rounded circumference, while the long stems with green foliage looks great in a vase. That why I’m using Daisy for my interesting internet articles. Daisy has very interesting facts along with statements that can be checked, but has no scholarly merit, but has enough sources to contribute. My first Daisy is an article done on The Black Panther by Brian Baggins. Brian Baggins was very difficult to located information on him besides his place of last employment, which was Marxists located in the United Kingdom, and it has a public ownership.
The web address is www.marxists.org. This company deals in archives of a lot of informative information that the public can do research on. There is a note on the last page that indicates the overview lack s a focus on the positive aspects of the Black Panthers. Baggins actually reaches out to anyone that has constructive sources of information to contribute. This internet article has good archiving on the negative side of the Black Panthers information, but not enough information on the Brian Baggins. This is why it falls into the Daisy category.
Last by not least my wonderful yellow Daisy goes to Gaius Chamberlan who by the way has several other websites listing him as President. The great black heroes is a wonderful website on African American past and present. However Chamberain’s information about himself was quite difficult to locate, and research. No current information was available on his web page about college attendance or what university he obtain a degree from. No evidence was available on the web at this time. I should have named this one Milk Weed.
