I Can Never Become An American

The significance of this blog is about the news as it occurs within this country I reside called America. I notice through my assess to the statistics that this blog named Journalism Reports is read by mostly citizens within the United States. My fatherland of origin where my great grandfather Ah Dy Lo came from is China where he came to California as written my my cousin Lani-Farkas Ah-Tye. I'm often asked by various sources the mandatory question of what my profile is where I worked and educational background. Up until now I've been rather successful in ducking these types of questions. Even in this posting I will succeed at this mark of being anonymous. But the facts are that my father Howard Ah-Tye was a writer and published by the Chinese Presbyterian Church of Oakland. He often wrote about the racial discrimination that the Chinese faced during his time he spent his life in California. The name of his book is called Resourceful Chinese. This was one of his endeavors which he accomplished in his life with which I wish to highlight in fact through my works dedicated to his life and the hero he was and is to me. The fact of the matter is that I cannot ever become an American provided that racisms is practiced and allowed to occur in these modern times in American and racism does not end over night. The conception that people of color namely those of the white race or the Caucasians have dominated as the the chosen ones with white rule represented by power and rule over ethnic minorities or people of color other than the white race. It does make for a very interesting reality. If I am ever to become an American it is not because I don't have a green card and by the way I never had a green card but it is because racism has existed for untold of thousands of years but America is a very smart nation realizing that there is no place in the society of America for racism to thrive. When racism dies then I become an American and there will be no more legalized racism practiced in this super power nation of The United States of America. Show me a time when racism will die.

I Too Have A Dream

One of my dreams is that the cars we drive will be cars that can fly. This is my fascination with objects that already fly which we can control starting from kites to drones as our play things to aircraft used on a commercial basis. So how far off is this concept car going to be from now. It is for anyone to guess. My guess is that it will happen sooner than we expected. Already in the news there is this car that automatically drives itself. But I have not seen one as yet. But I have flown kites with regularity outside of the kite zone of the Berkeley Marina where kites are a common site to see due to the prevailing winds perfect for kites and sailing vessels and even yachts in fact my dentist will see me soon for more work on my teeth so he can continue to sail his yacht. Here is my confession. I spend more time than the average person looking up at the sky because I am a kite flyer by hobby and those toy helicopters caught my attention when they first came out. Okay yes this is weird a grown sixty-six year old man going through his second childhood. But wait! What do I see up in the sky nowadays that are different. There is a new toy in town which I cannot ignore for they are common tools or objects of flight used for military purposes as we know now sold to the public but commonly known these are not weapons for which the public can use for recreational purposes. But these drones are much much more than toys for they come with cameras and the cost of these drones cost more than what the average teenager on the block can afford because many of the more expensive models suited for the right person can cost into the thousands of dollars. I haven't begun to tell you my dream. I must continue this posting at another time
