In the Footsteps of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
by Chealon Dain Miller
Two weeks have passed since the allotted time for the observance of the life of Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr., but I ponder the question, have we already forgotten? Forgotten, not
only the day that was set by the federal government for remembrance of the freedom fighter but
also the meaning of the struggle that was undertaken by this great leader. With the month
that has been given to the historical aspects of Black culture now here...
Leaving Longwood
@ Johnny's Luncheonette
by Joe Wright
As a new crop of students begins the Healer's Art and considering how to attend to their
well-being, let us all take a moment to appreciate those within medical education who place a

My eyes remained fixed on the book I was reading...

Wanja Chon: A Pan-Fried New Year's
by Ji Yeon Kim
Happy New Year's! If you go by the lunar calendar, we started 2004 (or year #4701 by the
Chinese calendar) on January 22. This is the Year of the Monkey. Many Asian cultures, not
just the Chinese, now celebrate New Year's twice by both the lunar and Julian calendars...

Our Target from Last Week: Meena Kumari Singh
Meena's gems of fashion wisdom from last week:
Everyone has their own style from wherever they're from — I usually rock
a 'curly fro.' It's definitely more 80's than 70's...
