THE NEXT DOCTOR OF DUPLIN!!!-While Donald Trump delivered his 1st commencement address as president Saturday at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia in front about 50,000 people, waiting patiently with her cap and gown, sat a 40 year old, working mother of three from Duplin County named Iris Carter, who was there to receive her MA in Executive Leadership.
“Oh Wow! It's a blessing.” said Carter, who attended James Kenan High School.
“Especially, at the age of 40, working ...towards any degree is special.”
While trying to obtain her Master’s, however, Carter admitted she faced several obstacles, which included the hospitalization, and later, the death, of her father, David Wells, whom passed away in 2014.
“Many days, of visiting him, in the hospital, we would talk. (And) he would tell me to never give up on my education…”she reminisced.
“He knew that I could do. Because, he knew that I was a go-getter and not a quitter. So, today, I know he would be very proud of me!!! Because, I did it!!!-(We) did it!!!
With the encouraging words of her father, the love of her mother (Doris Wells), the support of her husband (Greg Carter) along with the motivation from her family and children (Da'Nasia, Diamond and Deoveon), Iris plans to pursue her Ph.D.
“I am just trying to Make America “Great Again” she laughed. (Piggy-backing off of Donald Trump’s campaign theme.)
So, now, with a little study, lots of prayer and the scripture from Philippians 4:13 embedded in her heart, -I know she will obtain it.
Therefore, look out for the “NEXT” DOCTOR OF DUPLIN!!! –Dr. Iris Carter-by Eric D.Graham
THE UNSEEN HAND-Regret what? That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it?…What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the cold war?” – Zbigniew Brzezinski, in conversation with Le Nouveau Observateur (January, 1998)-
In the shadows of the FBI's investigation into Russia's possible secret convert involvement in hacking into the United State's "democratic process," terrorist attacks in London, and Donald Trump's refusal to sign and endorse the controversial Paris climate agreement, Zbigniew Brzezinski, counselor and trustee at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, professor of American foreign policy at the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University, and most famously National Security Adviser under US President Jimmy Carter passed away on Friday May 26th in a Falls Church, Virginia Hospital.
He was 89.
Brzezinski, though hardly a household name, enjoyed an influence over international politics that few intellectuals outside elected office can hope to attain. In addition to his numerous academic treatises, and the role he played in the Carter administration, he was active in the secretive and influential Council on Foreign Relations and the Bilderberg Group.
Additionally, he co-founded the Trilateral Commission with David Rockefeller. His daughter Mika Brzezinski is the host of Morning Joe on MSNBC.

Human Trafficking is a modern-day form of slavery. Victims of human trafficking are subjected to force, fraud, or coercion, for the purpose of sexual exploitation or forced labor. Victims are young children, teenagers, men and women. After drug dealing, human trafficking is tied with the illegal arms industry as the second largest criminal industry in the world today, and it is the fastest growing.
The Trafficking Victims Protection Act 2000 (TVPA) defines "Severe forms of Trafficking in Person as:
Sex Trafficking: the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for the purpose of a commercial sex act, in which a commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person forced to perform such an act is under of 18 years ;
Labor Trafficking, on the other hand, is defined as the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, or obtaining of a person for labor or services, through the use of force, fraud or coercion for the purpose of subjection to involuntary servitude, peonage, debt bondage, or slavery.
In both forms, the victim is an unwilling participant due to force, fraud, or coercion.
Trafficking Victims
Approximately 600,000 to 800,000 victims annually are trafficked across internationl borders worldwide, according to the US Department to State. These estimates include women, men and children. Victims are generally trafficked into the U.S. from Asia, Central and South America, and Eastern Europe. Many victims trafficked into the United States do not speak and understand English and are therefore isolated and unable to communicate with service providers, law enforcement and others who might be able to help them.
How Victims Are TraffickedMany victims of trafficking are forced to work in prostitution or sex entertainment. However, trafficking also takes place as labor exploitation, such as domestic servitude, sweatshop factories, or migrant agricultural work. Traffickers use force, fraud and coercion to compel women, men and children to engage in these activities. Force Force involves the use of rape, beating and confinement to control victims. Forceful violence is used especially during the early stages of victimization, known as the seasoning process, which is used to break victim's resistance to make them easier to control.Fraud
Fraud often involves false offers of employment. For example, women and children will reply to advertisement s promising jobs as waitresses, maids and dancers in other countries and are then forced into prostitution once they arrive at their destinations.
Coercion
Coercion involves threats of serious harm to, or physical restraint of, victims of trafficking; any scheme, plan or pattern intended to cause victims to believe that failure to perform an act would result in restraint against them; or abuse or threatened abuse of the legal process.
Victims of trafficking are often subjected to debt-bondage, usually in the context of playing off transportation fee into the destination countries. Traffickers often threaten victims with injury or death or the safety of the victim's family back. Traffickers commonly take away the victims' travel documents and isolate them to make escape more difficult. Victims often do not realize that it is illegal for traffickers to dictate how they have to pay off their debt. In many cases, the victims are trapped into a cycle of debt because they have to pay for all living expenses in addition to the inital transportation expenses. Fines for not meeting daily quotes of services or "bad" behavior are also used by some trafficking operations to increase debt. Most trafficked victims are rarely see the money they are supposedly earning and may not even know the specific amount of their debt. Even if the victims sense that debt-bondage is unjust, it is difficult for them to find help because of language, social, and physical barriers that keep them from obtaining assistance.
Help for Victims of Trafficiking
Prior to the enactment of the TVPA in October 2000, no comprehensive Federal law existed to protect victims of trafficking or to prosecute their traffickers. The law is compehensive in addressing the various ways of combatting trafficking, including prevention, protection and prosecution. It is intended to prevent human trafficking overseas, to increase prosecution of United States and to protect victims and provide
Federal and state assistance to certain victims. Victims of human trafficking who are not U.S.citizens are eligible for a special visa and can receive benefits and services through the TVPA to the same extent as refugees. Victims are trafficking who are U.S. citizens may already be eligible for many benefits due to their citizenship. If you think you have come in contact with a victim of human trafficking, call the National Human Trafficking Resource Center at 1-888-3737-888 What is the NHTRC’s National Website?

A MUST READ!!!! PSYCHOLOGICAL COST OF KILLING:-Drawing on interviews, published personal accounts and academic studies, Grossman investigates the psychology of killing in combat. Stressing that human beings have a powerful, innate resistance to the taking of life, he examines the techniques developed by the military to overcome that aversion. His provocative study focuses in particular on the Vietnam war, revealing how the American soldier was ``enabled to kill to a far greater degree than any other soldier in history.''
Grossman argues that the breakdown of American society, combined with the pervasive violence in the media and interactive video games, is conditioning our children to kill in a manner similar to the army's conditioning of soldiers: ``We are reaching that stage of desensitization at which the infliction of pain and suffering has become a source of entertainment: vicarious pleasure rather than revulsion. We are learning to kill, and we are learning to like it.'' Grossman, a professor of military science at Arkansas State University, has written a study of relevance to a society of escalating violence.
Lt. Col. Dave Grossman (psychology, West Point) presents three important hypotheses: 1) That humans possess the reluctance to kill their own kind; 2) that this reluctance can be systematically broken down by use of standard conditioning techniques; and 3) that the reaction of "normal" (e.g., non-psychopathic) soliders to having killed in close combat can be best understood as a series of "stages" similar to the ubiquitous Kbler-Ross stages of reaction to life-threatening disease.
While some of the evidence to support his theories have been previously presented by military historians (most notably, John Keegan), this systematic examination of the individual soldier's behavior, like all good scientific theory making, leads to a series of useful explanations for a variety of phenomena, such as the high rate of post traumatic stress disorders among Vietnam veterans, why the rate of aggravated assault continues to climb, and why civilian populations that have endured heavy bombing in warfare do not have high incidents of mental illness.
This important book deserves a wide readership. Essential for all libraries serving military personnel or veterans, including most public libraries.-Mary Ann Hughes, Neill P.L., Pullman, Wash.
WHERE DID I GO WRONG?-The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) states that the nation’s homeless veterans are predominantly male, with roughly 9% being female.
The majority are single; live in urban areas; and suffer from mental illness, alcohol and/or substance abuse, or co-occurring disorders. About 11% of the adult homeless population are veterans. Roughly 45% of all homeless veterans are African American or Hispanic, despite only accounting for 10.4% and 3.4% of the U....S. veteran population, respectively.
America’s homeless veterans have served in World War II, the Korean War, Cold War, Vietnam War, Grenada, Panama, Lebanon, Persian Gulf War, Afghanistan and Iraq (OEF/OIF), and the military’s anti-drug cultivation efforts in South America. Nearly half of homeless veterans served during the Vietnam era.
Two-thirds served our country for at least three years, and one-third were stationed in a war zone. About 1.4 million other veterans, meanwhile, are considered at risk of homelessness due to poverty, lack of support networks, and dismal living conditions in overcrowded or substandard housing.
In addition to the complex set of factors influencing all homelessness – extreme shortage of affordable housing, livable income and access to health care – a large number of displaced and at-risk veterans live with lingering effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance abuse, which are compounded by a lack of family and social support networks.
Additionally, military occupations and training are not always transferable to the civilian workforce, placing some veterans at a disadvantage when competing for employment. (Veteran in crisis?) Dial 1.877.424.3838 for 24/7 assistance. The Evolution of an MC: Pocket Full of Ghetto Poems Vol.2
