Greed has poisoned men's souls,
has barricaded the world with hate,
has goose-stepped us into misery
and bloodshed.
We have developed speed,
but we have shut ourselves in.
Machinery that gives abundance
has left us in want.
Our knowledge has made us cynical;
our cleverness, hard and unkind.
We think too much and feel too little.
More than machinery,
we need humanity.
More than cleverness,
we need kindness and gentleness.
Without these qualities,
life will be violent and all will be lost.



Hard to believe this quote is actually 84yrs old! It’s from Charlie Chaplin's speech in the final scene of the 1940 film "The Great Dictator." Greed is still poisoning men’s souls and the world is in desperate need of more kindness and gentleness.

Let’s do our part and shine as brightly as we can and share our love and light❤

• This is Glen Mills.

• The man behind Usaine Bolt's world records.

• He taught Bolt a technique that made him the fastest man of all time.

• Glen Mills is the head coach at Racers Track Club in Kingston, Jamaica 🇯🇲.

• Glen abandoned his track-and-field ambitions at the age of 14.

• He knew running on the track was not his calling, so he decided to become a coach.

• Before becoming a coach, Glen did odd jobs at the track and ultimately became mentor and instructor to a younger group of athletes in Jamaica.

• His club, Racers Track Club has produced world record holders like Usain Bolt.

• His students have won a total of 71 medals at he IAAF World Championships & 33 medals at Olympic competitions.

• Usain Bolt alone won 19 of these medals.

• Without Glen there would be no Usain Bolt.

Here Is Why?

• After a disappointing performance at the Athens Olympics, Usain Bolt turned to Mills to help him fulfill his promise as an athlete.

• Mills recognized Bolt’s natural talents, but also noted his poor technique, which he went about remedying over a two-year period devoted to breaking Bolt’s bad habits.

• Mills taught Bolt “The Law of Reversed Effort” which states that the more effort you put in, the less reward you get.

• One reason Bolt struggled was because he tried too hard.

• Usain Bolt was giving his all, thinking it'll lead to the best times. In reality, It backfired, and his muscles tensed. Glen Mills told him to "Relax".

• In Beijing, Usaine Bolt ran a 9.69. Then he beat his record when he ran a 9.58.

• In both races, his time from the 70m mark to 90m is nearly identical.

• Why's this so surprising?

• In Beijing, Bolt started a celebration at the 70m mark. Yet, he ran just as fast!

• Glen’s technique helped Bolt to becoming a world champion and the fast man alive.

Thank you, Glen Mills ❤️🫡

Jamaican Dr Anita Brown-Johnson said yesterday that she was not shocked that her son Nicholas Johnson’s record of academic excellence paved the way for his history-making exploits as the first black of University.

Princeton confirmed late April that the 22-year-old scholar was the first black valedictorian in the Ivy League school’s 274-year history.

Frank Silvera born on July 24, 1914 was a Jamaican-born Black character actor and theatrical director.

Silvera was known throughout Hollywood as "the man with a thousand faces" because of his ability to play a wide array of roles. He appeared in more than 75 television shows and films mostly as a white man or a Mexican.

With his fair-skinned complexion, Silvera also portrayed a white man in his Broadway debut in a revival of Thornton Wilder's The Skin of Our Teeth, which earned him favorable reviews. In November 1955, he portrayed John Pope, Sr., the Italian father of Ben Gazzara and Anthony Franciosa's characters on Broadway in Michael V. Gazzo’s, A Hatful of Rain (a role portrayed by Lloyd Nolan on screen), and again was praised by critics.

Silvera made guest appearances in numerous television series, mainly dramas and westerns, including Playhouse 90, The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, Bat Masterson, Thriller, Riverboat, Rawhide, The Untouchables, Wanted: Dead or Alive, Daniel Boone, I Spy, Hawaii Five-O, Perry Mason and Bonanza.

In 1962 he portrayed Dr. Koslenko in the classic The Twilight Zone episode "Person or Persons Unknown", opposite Richard Long. Silvera wasn’t cast in a black role until he financed his own theatre production of "The Amen Corner" written by James Baldwin.

Frank Silvera died in an accident at home in on June 11, 1970. At the time, he was contracted for a recurring role in the NBC western series, The High Chaparral as the Mexican squire, Don Sebastian Montoya. His final film, Valdez Is Coming, was released posthumously, in 1971.

His legacy is left with the Frank Silvera Writer's Workshop Foundation, Inc., co-founded by Morgan Freeman to help Black playwrights achieve their goals. They received part of a $20 million grant from the Carnegie Foundation for their efforts.

A World War II Navy Veteran, Silvera was buried with honors at Long Island National Cemetery in Farmingdale, New York.

ON THIS DAY: in 1993, Curtly Ambrose ransacked Australia at Perth on the first day of the Test - at one point he'd bowled 32 balls, taken 7 wickets, and conceded just the one run. 🤯

He finished with 7-25 and West Indies won by an innings in the decider.

“The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”
“Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals. He sets them to work, he gives back to them the bare minimum that will prevent them from starving, and the rest he keeps for himself.”
― George Orwell, Animal Farm
