This video is a trailer for a special Veterans Day presentation.  Join us Tuesday November 11th for three real stories focusing on the lives of veterans affected by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. <br><br>Unlike Memorial Day, when we pay tribute to those who have served our country and are no longer with us, Veterans Day is about recognizing the sacrifices of the more than 20 million men and women who have served and are serving in the Armed Forces.  I invite you to take a moment to consider how your life would be different if someone in your family were serving overseas, or struggling to rebuild a life after finally returning home.<br><br>This is the subject of In Their Boots.  Real people.  Real Stories.  A resource for connecting service members and veterans with support services, and a resource for engaging volunteers in support services.  It is all at <a href=\"http://www.intheirboots.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.intheirboots.com</a>.

At one point, the chatter so overloaded the server of the most popular white supremacist Internet forum, Stormfront, that the site was temporarily shut down.<br><br>            According to ADL, racists are incredulous that Obama was elected primarily by white voters and are seething with anger at the prospect of an America led by an African-American man.<br><br>            \u201cWe always expect a reaction from the bigots when events occur that they believe are contrary to their interests and worldview,\u201d said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director.  \u201cWhile it\u2019s clear that race didn\u2019t matter to the vast majority of the American people in this election, race matters to racists.\u201d<br><br>            Mr. Foxman added: \u201cThe amount of invective, anger and rage being vented on white supremacist sites in the aftermath of the election is startling.  Many racists are convinced that President-elect Obama\u2019s achievement means that whites have lost their place in America, and they are predicting the beginning of a race war.\u201d<br><br>            The League has posted a sampling of comments from white supremacist online discussion boards and Internet forums on its Web site at <a href=\"http://www.adl.org/main_Extremism/rage.htm\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.adl.org/main_Extremism/rage.htm</a><br><br>            Well-known extremists, like former Klan leader David Duke, as well as anonymous individuals online blamed everyone from white \u201ctraitors\u201d to Jews, minorities, and Republicans for bringing about this event and destroying their vision of a race-divided America.<br><br>            The white supremacist chatter on the election has focused on several themes:<br><br>    * \u201cTragedy\u201d for America: White supremacist and former Klansman David Duke announced on an Internet radio show on election night that, \u201cI believe tonight is a night of tragedy and sadness for our people in many ways \u2026 the country is not recognizable any more.\u201d<br>    * Predicting a \u201cRace War:\u201d  While some racists announced that they would leave the United States, others suggested that Obama\u2019s election win would provide a catalyst that would move whites to become active racists.  Some predicted the election would prove a boon to racist recruitment efforts.  Still others suggested they were planning on arming themselves with guns and ammunition to defend themselves in a coming \u201crace war.\u201d<br>    * Calls to Violence:  While making no direct threats against the president-elect, some white supremacists expressed a hope that Obama would be killed or die while in office. One racist referred to a recent alleged plot by neo-Nazi skinheads to kill Obama and minorities, expressing a hope that someone else would carry out an assassination attempt: \u201c\u2026 hopefully he\u2019ll get assassinated before he gets into office.

At one point, the chatter so overloaded the server of the most popular white supremacist Internet forum, Stormfront, that the site was temporarily shut down.<br><br>            According to ADL, racists are incredulous that Obama was elected primarily by white voters and are seething with anger at the prospect of an America led by an African-American man.<br><br>            “We always expect a reaction from the bigots when events occur that they believe are contrary to their interests and worldview,” said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director.  “While it’s clear that race didn’t matter to the vast majority of the American people in this election, race matters to racists.”<br><br>            Mr. Foxman added: “The amount of invective, anger and rage being vented on white supremacist sites in the aftermath of the election is startling.  Many racists are convinced that President-elect Obama’s achievement means that whites have lost their place in America, and they are predicting the beginning of a race war.”<br><br>            The League has posted a sampling of comments from white supremacist online discussion boards and Internet forums on its Web site at <a href="http://www.adl.org/main_Extremism/rage.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.adl.org/main_Extremism/rage.htm</a><br><br>            Well-known extremists, like former Klan leader David Duke, as well as anonymous individuals online blamed everyone from white “traitors” to Jews, minorities, and Republicans for bringing about this event and destroying their vision of a race-divided America.<br><br>            The white supremacist chatter on the election has focused on several themes:<br><br>    * “Tragedy” for America: White supremacist and former Klansman David Duke announced on an Internet radio show on election night that, “I believe tonight is a night of tragedy and sadness for our people in many ways … the country is not recognizable any more.”<br>    * Predicting a “Race War:”  While some racists announced that they would leave the United States, others suggested that Obama’s election win would provide a catalyst that would move whites to become active racists.  Some predicted the election would prove a boon to racist recruitment efforts.  Still others suggested they were planning on arming themselves with guns and ammunition to defend themselves in a coming “race war.”<br>    * Calls to Violence:  While making no direct threats against the president-elect, some white supremacists expressed a hope that Obama would be killed or die while in office. One racist referred to a recent alleged plot by neo-Nazi skinheads to kill Obama and minorities, expressing a hope that someone else would carry out an assassination attempt: “… hopefully he’ll get assassinated before he gets into office.  Just don’t be (expletive) idiots about it like those skinheads were,” wrote “Trellen R.”  An anonymous poster on white supremacist Hal Turner’s blog went further: “Someone will kill him!  And I will celebrate!  It’s just a matter of time.”<br>    * Blaming Jews: Not surprisingly, many white supremacists are blaming Jews, suggesting that Jews control U.S. government and media and promote multiculturalism. Others suggested Jews exercised control over the Obama campaign and the Democratic Party.<br><br> <br><br>Editors Note:  More information on white supremacists groups is available on the League’s Web site at <a href="http://www.adl.org" rel="nofollow">www.adl.org</a>.

Many of us are educators and know the signs of a child/ person who might seek out these groups. When I worked on a campus, I distributed this information to Resident Adivisors who essentially had direct contact with students who might consider joining a hate group, then they educated them and explained the importance of an inclusive community.<br><br>I\'m this scared you, but think of it this way also. Many groups are monitoring them and compiling evidence so like the others if they attempt, they will not be let go. And if they threaten they will be quickly swooped up we have been following them. And use this info to remind people of how others think about this and its a larger issue than "they hate black people."  some people just want to ignore them and ignoring them doesn\'t protect our own communities.</div>\

Her godmother teaches the class, and it is primarily an African American group.  There are 3 little white girls their.  Lo and behold one of the white moms who brought the snacks tonight rolls up in the class with a McCAIN PALIN shirt on.  I almost hollered.  We all just looked at each other... I leaned over and said  "so" to my neighbor.  She laughed.  We are all professional women, and none of us have ever worn any of our Obama paraphernalia.  When we talked about voting, no one discussed who we were voting for ,we just talked about voting early.  I laughed at her ass because if she was picking a fight, she did not get it.</div>\

This video is a trailer for a special Veterans Day presentation.  Join us Tuesday November 11th for three real stories focusing on the lives of veterans affected by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. <br><br>Unlike Memorial Day, when we pay tribute to those who have served our country and are no longer with us, Veterans Day is about recognizing the sacrifices of the more than 20 million men and women who have served and are serving in the Armed Forces.  I invite you to take a moment to consider how your life would be different if someone in your family were serving overseas, or struggling to rebuild a life after finally returning home.<br><br>This is the subject of In Their Boots.  Real people.  Real Stories.  A resource for connecting service members and veterans with support services, and a resource for engaging volunteers in support services.  It is all at <a href="http://www.intheirboots.com" rel="nofollow">www.intheirboots.com</a>.  I hope you\'ll take a look.  <br><br>Happy Veterans Day. </i><br><br>I call my brother every VETERANS\' DAY to THANK HIM for his 27+ years of Naval Service!  And I cry EVERY TIME.  And he\'s been out for over 20 years!!  <br>Love to ALL vets and their families! <br> God Bless Them!!</div>\
