Blyden today remains essentially alone. He writes letters to Angela Davis, and to the Chinese delegation at the United Nations (asking to be traded for American prisoners in North Viet Nam). And he broods. He once told one of his lawyers not to bring him books. "Can't you understand?" he shouted. "I have nothing, and if you give me books I'll treasure them, and then they'll take them away from me, and I couldn't stand...
...asked questions, says Mr. Nwafor. What questions, and of whom? And what were the answer? If Mr. Nwafor was on a ten days' State Department tour of the United States studying racism would he be content, say, with seeing only Roy Wilkins and not talking to Huey Newton and Angela Davis?

Several grand jurors in the Ted Kennedy Chappaquiddick case also reported feeling frustrated; they wanted...
Bedknobs and Broomsticks is a present for the holiday season from the Disney studios. It's like getting a lump of coal in your Christmas stocking. Made in blatant imitation of Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks concerns the singularly unengaging adventures of an amateur witch named Eglantine Price (Angela Lansbury) and her three cockney charges (Roy Snart, Ian Weighill and Cindy O'Callaghan) during the early days of England's involvement in the second World War. It must be the first movie in history to combine Nazis and singing fish...
