Growing up in the South is hard. Ask anyone from Appalachia, the Mississippi Delta, the cane fields of Louisiana, or the Hill Country of south-central Texas whether they were born with a silver spoon in their mouth, and you’re likely to get a wry smile in reply. ‘Silver spoons? Son, we didn’t even have a ceiling fan.’ “Luxury” is not on the menu wherever cornbread and collard greens are served.
Take that and multiply it by about a hundred if you’re black. Because in the South, for black folk, it’s always one Dem thing after another. Democrats blocking school doors in Little Rock. Democrats lynching your friends. Democrats burning crosses in your front yard. Democrats celebrating black genocide at Planned Parenthood. Democrats in Georgia telling you you’re too stupid to get a photo ID. When you’re poor and white in the South, you’re just poor and white. When you’re poor and black, you have to deal with poverty as well as with Democrats.

RCC Educational Foundation Receives $2.7 Million Charitable Gift
Glenns, VA The Rappahannock Community College Educational Foundation, Inc. (RCC EFI) is the recipient of a $2.7 million charitable gift from Dr. S. Stuart Flanagan. Dr. Flanagan has devoted his professional life to teaching and much of his philanthropic life to providing low-income students the opportunity to attend institutions of higher education.
The funds form the Flanagan Family Endowment and support RCC’s high school Navigator Program that embeds RCC success coaches or
navigators in the service region’s public high schools. Navigators provide hands-on advising and support to those students who are especially at risk of not enrolling in any Institute of Higher Education, including short-term workforce credential classes, within 16 months of graduation.
