<mask> (26 August 1870 – 24 January 1963) was a Canadian creationist. He produced several anti-evolution and creationist works, particularly on the subject of flood geology. His views did not become common among creationists until after his death, particularly with the modern creation science movement starting in the 1960s. Personal life
<mask> was the father of <mask> and grandfather of actor John Shelton, who named one of his sons Darwin to "balance everything out". He is also the great great grandfather of Lake Street Dive vocalist <mask>

Biography
<mask> was born in Havelock, New Brunswick, Canada. His father died in 1882, and his mother joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church. <mask> attended Battle Creek College (now Andrews University) between 1891 and 1893.In 1896, he enrolled in a one-year teacher training course at the Provincial Normal School of New Brunswick (now the University of New Brunswick), where he took some elementary courses in some of the natural sciences, including some mineralogy. <mask> taught at a series of small-town schools from 1897 onwards, including at a high school in Tracadie between 1899 and 1902. While there, socially, he met Alfred Corbett Smith (head of the medical department at a local leprosarium) who loaned him scientific literature. Believing the Earth was young, <mask> concluded that geologists had misinterpreted their data. In 1902, <mask> completed the manuscript Outlines of Modern Christianity and Modern Science before leaving Tracadie to serve brief stints as an Adventist evangelist on Prince Edward Island and the head of a new Adventist boarding academy in Nova Scotia. He briefly returned to book-selling in 1904, and then moved to New York City in an attempt to become a magazine and newspaper writer. In a response to a plea from his wife, the Adventist church first employed <mask> as a construction worker in Maryland.He then was principal of a small Adventist school in Oakland, California, before becoming a construction worker and handyman at a newly purchased Adventist sanitarium in Loma Linda, California, where he published Illogical Geology: The Weakest Point in the Evolution Theory in 1906. In Illogical Geology, <mask> offered $1000 "to any one who will, in the face of the facts here presented, show me how to prove that one kind of fossil is older than another." From 1907 to 1912, <mask> taught at the Seventh-day Adventist-run College of Medical Evangelists, now known as Loma Linda University, which awarded him a B.A., based partially on his authorship and independent study. From 1912 to 1914, he taught at the San Fernando Academy in San Fernando, California, and from 1914 to 1916 at Lodi Academy, Lodi, California. Beginning in 1920, <mask> taught at Pacific Union College, Angwin, California, where he was awarded an M.A. (described by Ronald L. Numbers as a "gift"). From 1924 to 1928, <mask> taught at Stanborough Missionary College in Watford, England, where he served as president from 1927 to 1928.He then taught at Emmanual Missionary College (now Andrews University) in Berrien Springs, Michigan from 1929 to 1933, and Walla Walla College near Walla Walla, Washington from 1933 to 1938. While <mask> claimed that his book-selling travels gave him invaluable "firsthand knowledge of field geology", his "familiarity with the outside world" remained rudimentary, with even his own students noting that he could "barely tell one fossil from another" on a field trip shortly before he retired. In 1943, he moved to Loma Linda, California, where he died 20 years later at the age of 92. Reception
In 1906 David Starr Jordan, president of Stanford University, and a leading American expert on fossil fishes, wrote a review of <mask>'s Illogical Geology, in which he stated that <mask> should not expect "any geologist to take [his work] seriously." This led to a correspondence over the next twenty years in which <mask> once promised "to become an evolutionist within twenty-four hours" if "the foremost ichthyologist in the world" could prove that one fossil was older than another, and Jordan attempted to enlighten <mask> that his views were:

Jordan also unsuccessfully urged <mask> to "undertake some constructive work in Paleontology in the field and in laboratories." Numbers says that Seventh-day Adventism is grounded on the Sabbath doctrine of a literal Creation week. To <mask>, the Sabbath doctrine is what saved Adventists from evolutionism.He adopted Ellen G. White's position on creationism as his own and he sought to persuade the world that a recent creation was required by the Bible and science. <mask> criticized the 'geologic ages' and strict Lyellian uniformitarianism on which he thought they were based. As an alternative explanation of the geology of the earth, he re-invented Flood geology. He pondered ways to reinterpret the apparent order of the fossils that seemingly implied ancient bygone eras. After studying a wide variety of geologic literature, <mask> deduced that the "facts of the rocks and fossils, stripped of mere theories, splendidly refute this evolutionary theory of the invariable order of the fossils, which is the very backbone of the evolutionary doctrine." He had read of strata containing fossils of a young era lying conformably on strata containing fossils of very old eras. The geologist who described these lithically identical layers said that "one would naturally suppose that a single formation was being dealt with, were it not for fossil evidence."To <mask>, that, and the lack of any evidence of erosion between the strata, implied that little time could have occurred between the two layers of rock. <mask> also discovered in the literature examples of similar conformable strata, but in the reverse order, the old rocks on top and the young strata below according to interpretation of the fossils. Although appearing "to succeed one another conformably" the Canadian Geologic Survey contended for over-thrusting principally based on the fossil content. <mask>'s interpretation of the evidence was that "the geological record does not prove succession of ages, but rather shows a "taxonomic" series representing different but contemporaneous zones of antediluvian life." So, in <mask>'s 1913 book, The Fundamentals of Geology, an expanded version of Illogical Geology, he presented the "Law of Conformable Stratigraphic Sequences" which states "any kind of fossiliferous rock may occur conformably on any other kind of fossiliferous rock, old or young." To <mask> this law was "by all odds the most important law ever formulated with reference to the order in which the strata occur." Yale geologist Schuchert's review of The New Geology for the magazine Science stated that <mask> was  "harboring a geological nightmare".However, the creationists welcomed the new book. Harry Rimmer claimed that it was "a masterpiece of REAL science [that] explodes in a convincing manner some of the ancient fallacies of science 'falsely so called'". Within a couple of years, <mask> appeared prominently in several conservative religious periodicals. A Science editor described him as "the principal scientific authority of the Fundamentalists". <mask>, concerned about scientific methodology, had read Whithead and other philosophers and understood that facts were always subject to interpretation. While <mask> was confident that "inductive geology" inferred a recent Creation, he acknowledged that debate between creationism and naturalism lay outside of science, "across the boundary-line in the domain of philosophy and theology." He claimed that naturalists regarded facts "through the colored spectacles of Darwin and Lyell" while Creationists used the Bible to interpret the natural world.He said that the Creationist account of origins could never have been developed as a hypothesis from the study of nature alone, rather it was "suggested by our religion." In choosing between "the two alternatives now before the world," naturalistic geology versus world-catastrophe, there was but one suitable inquiry: "Will it give the most rational account nature's evidence?" <mask>'s defense of creation science (and attacks on evolution) first achieved wide notability in 1925 when his theories and arguments were utilized heavily by William Jennings Bryan in the famous Scopes Trial. Bryan had appealed to <mask> for assistance, but <mask> was busy teaching in England. <mask> advised Bryan to avoid science during the trial if possible. During the trial, defense counsel Clarence Darrow, sneered "You mentioned <mask> because he is the only human being in the world so far as you know that signs his name as a geologist that believes like you do . . . every scientist in this country knows [he] is a mountebank and a pretender and not a geologist at all."<mask>'s ideas were borrowed again in the early 1960s by Henry M. Morris and John Whitcomb in their book The Genesis Flood, a work that skeptic Martin Gardner calls "the most significant attack on evolution...since the Scopes trial". Morris, in his 1984 book History of Modern Creationism, spoke glowingly of <mask>'s logic and writing style, and referred to reading The New Geology as "a life-changing experience for me". Comments about Old Earth creationists
<mask> was more conservative in his views than Old Earth creationists such as William Jennings Bryan, Harry Rimmer or William Bell Riley. Contrary to Bryan, Rimmer and Riley, <mask> rejected the idea of a local flood and insisted on a pure literal 6-day creation consisting of six 24-hour days. He felt that Riley's day-age creationist views were "the devil's counterfeit". <mask> was equally dismissive of Rimmer, and his gap creationism for most of his career. Bibliography

<mask> (born August 28, 1948) is a Mexican journalist and newspaper publisher known for developing one of the largest and most powerful newspaper consortiums in Latin America. Junco is an outspoken advocate for journalistic integrity and has actively campaigned since the 1970s to reform journalism, strengthen press freedom, and promote public information laws in Mexico. Early life
<mask> worked in the newsroom and occupied different management positions at El Norte, a Monterrey newspaper founded in 1938 by his grandfather. When he became publisher of El Norte in 1973, <mask> teamed with Mary Gardner—one of his former journalism professors at the University of Texas—to train reporters in journalistic techniques and ethics. Junco barred his reporters from taking bribes and from selling advertising to the subjects of their articles.These journalism standards  would become the cornerstone for the growth of what would eventually become Grupo Reforma. Shortly after <mask> took over the leadership of El Norte, the newspaper found itself at odds with the Mexican government after its reporting and editorials angered President Luis Echeverria. The government attempted to shut down the newspaper by ordering PIPSA, Mexico's state-owned paper manufacturer, to stop selling newsprint to El Norte in what would come to be known as la "Guerra del Papel" (the "Paper War"). Despite the challenges, <mask> and his team were able to keep El Norte in print by cutting the newspaper to 12 pages. Eventually, they were able to supplement their paper supply with imported newsprint. (In 1998, PIPSA was privatized by the Mexican government, allowing for the unrestricted import of newsprint.) Grupo Reforma
With his success at El Norte and El Sol (another Monterrey newspaper founded by his grandfather in 1922), <mask> was able to expand these two newspapers into a national chain and grow his team from 17 local reporters to 400 nationwide.In 1988, he launched Metro—a morning daily that offered information to readers in a tabloid format. Metro began in Monterrey, but was eventually expanded to Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Saltillo. In November 1993, <mask> launched Reforma in Mexico City. At this point, he brought El Norte, El Sol, Metro, and Reforma together under a single publishing company, which he named Grupo Reforma. In November 1998, Junco unveiled Mural in Guadalajara, which was added to the Grupo Reforma lineup. A new journalism model
In 1991, <mask> implemented a model of community editorial boards that would eventually become standard for Grupo Reforma. He invited hundreds of readers, thought leaders, and experts to participate in editorial boards that helped set the newspapers' editorial agenda.Not only did this promote community involvement in civic matters, but it also ensured a diversity of viewpoints. Junco has described the editorial boards as promoting democracy and objectivity because its members are politically balanced and come from a wide variety of backgrounds. According to Junco, the system puts the power in the hands of the readers. Junco also led a transformation in the way newspapers were distributed by challenging Mexico City's government-affiliated newspaper carrier union. When the union boycotted the delivery of Reforma newspapers in October 1994, <mask> led his reporters in the streets to sell the papers themselves. He also hired his own vendors to create an independent distribution system. Junco believed that commercial success through selling newspapers and advertising was a fundamental aspect to establishing a free press.To this end, he began offering food and fashion sections in Reforma and the newspaper became popular among the middle class. Role in Mexico's democratization
In the 1990s, Grupo Reforma helped loosen the control and censorship that had long been imposed on the media by the Mexican government. The ethics and integrity that Junco brought to Mexican journalism, along with Grupo Reforma's commitment to exposing fraud and corruption, helped pave the way for democracy and put an end to 70 years of one-party rule in Mexico. American academics and journalists have lauded Grupo Reforma for the role it has played in the advancement of independent journalism in Mexico over the last 40 years. Former IAPA president Edward Seaton says that Junco's newspapers "ushered in a different ethical standard for journalism" and states that "[w]ithout <mask>'s contributions, I believe Mexico would not be the vibrant democracy it is today." Sallie Hughes, a professor of journalism at University of Miami, refers to Reforma as a "change leader" and says that its launch was "a watershed event in Mexico City journalism." And MIT professor Chapell Lawson has said that Junco's work "changed the rules of Mexican journalism."Transparency laws and judicial reform
In the early 2000s, <mask> helped lead the Oaxaca Group (an initiative that brought together media outlets, legal experts, academics, and NGOs) to convince Mexico's political leaders to approve a landmark federal transparency law. The freedom-of-information legislation gave journalists, investigators, and ordinary citizens access to government information that had been denied to them for decades. <mask> was also part of a campaign against government censorship throughout the early 2000s. He publicly denounced defamation charges that government officials (such as former Mexico City mayor Rosario Robles) had levied against him and his reporters. His efforts persuaded legislators to decriminalize the expression of ideas. Grupo Reforma's news coverage and active participation through organized forums eventually persuaded Mexican legislators to approve a 2008 judicial reform that instituted public trials and put greater emphasis on due process rights. Exposing drug-related crime
In 2006, President <mask> moved his family to Austin, Texas to keep them safe. while he commuted to Monterrey to continue leading the company. Between 2010 and 2012, five El Norte offices in Monterrey were attacked with grenades, bombs, and gunfire. In February 2011, cartel members kidnapped an El Norte distributor and burned the papers he was transporting. They instructed him to tell the newspaper's directors to "stop... or we're going to blow them up."Soon after that, three masked men entered the El Norte office in San Pedro Garza García and set it on fire. In 2012, <mask> told CNN that the Mexican government was refusing to investigate the cartel attacks on his newspapers. "We have the impression that local and federal authorities don't take the threats and attacks seriously," he said. Despite the threats and the violence, <mask> continued to publish articles exposing criminal activity. He often did so without reporters' bylines in order to ensure their safety. In a 2009 interview with Terry Gross, <mask> stated, "We have every reason in the world to drop the stories, and we have every reason to look the other way, but we have resolved to continue to report all we know about the problem and continue to ask questions. And we hold to the faith that if we ask enough of them, we may finally come upon a solution."References

<mask> (born October 2, 1982) is an American former professional basketball player and player development coach for the Dallas Mavericks of the National Basketball Association (NBA). <mask> was drafted directly out of high school as the second overall pick of the 2001 NBA draft by the Los Angeles Clippers, then was immediately traded to the Chicago Bulls. He has also played for the New Orleans Hornets, Charlotte Bobcats, Dallas Mavericks, New York Knicks, Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers. As starting center for Dallas, he played an integral role in the franchise's first NBA championship in 2011. <mask> was named to the NBA All-Defensive Team three times. While with New York, he was voted the NBA Defensive Player of the Year in 2012, when he was also named to the All-NBA Third Team. He won gold medals with the US national team in the 2010 FIBA World Championship and the 2012 Summer Olympics.Early life and high school career
<mask> was born to <mask> and Vernie Threadgill, though he did not meet his father Frank until later in his life. He grew up in a family farm in Hanford, California, just south of Fresno, California. <mask> began playing basketball at the age of three years on a basket <mask>'s grandfather, Cleotis, fixed on a tree. <mask> grew up doing farm work such as milking cows, slopping pigs, and cultivating crops. At the age of nine years, <mask> and his mother moved to San Bernardino, California; he was already nearly six feet tall. As a child, <mask> was teased because of his height; children on his school basketball team joked that he was older than he really was, and that he had been left back several times in school. As a freshman, <mask> enrolled at Dominguez High School in Compton, California, a school known for its athletics, producing basketball players such as Dennis Johnson and Cedric Ceballos.In his freshman year, <mask> made the varsity team and played with future NBA player Tayshaun Prince, who was then a senior. With the Dominguez Dons, <mask> became a teenage sensation; current players such as DeMar DeRozan watched him play and claimed "he was like Shaq". Point guard Brandon Jennings, who was a ball boy for Dominguez at the time, said, "You'd see the girls around <mask>, the Escalade he drove, and you wanted to be like him". <mask> earned accolades from Parade Magazine and USA Today and was selected to the McDonald's High School All-America Team. As a freshman, he was profiled on current affairs TV program 60 Minutes. In his junior year, <mask> averaged 20 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks. In his senior year, <mask> led Dominguez to a state championship and a 31–4 record, averaging 26 points, 15 rebounds, and 8 blocks a game.<mask> was recruited by several universities and considered UCLA, Arizona, Syracuse, Memphis, Kentucky and Michigan. <mask> then declared for the 2001 NBA draft as a prep-to-pro. Professional career

Chicago Bulls (2001–2006)
<mask> was selected by the Los Angeles Clippers with the second overall pick in the 2001 NBA draft, before being immediately traded to the Chicago Bulls for former No. 1 overall pick Elton Brand. The Bulls placed their rebuilding efforts on the backs of two teenagers in <mask> and Eddy Curry. <mask>'s 2003–04 season saw him appear in a career-low 35 games. He missed two months early in the season with a bad back, before missing the final weeks of the season after landing hard on his back on March 27 against the Atlanta Hawks.In September 2005, <mask> signed a six-year deal with the Bulls. In July 2006, the Bulls looked to deal away <mask>, who had five years and $54 million left on his contract, in order to pursue Ben Wallace. New Orleans Hornets (2006–2009)

On July 14, 2006, <mask> was traded to the New Orleans Hornets in exchange for P. J. Brown and J. R. Smith. <mask> led the NBA in offensive rebounds in both 2006–07 and 2007–08, ranking second in the league in rebounds per game in 2006–07 and third in rebounds per game in 2007–08. He also ranked second in the NBA in field goal percentage in 2007–08 (.623) and would have led the league at .624 in 2006–07 but fell four field goals short of the statistical minimum to qualify. On February 17, 2009, <mask> was traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for Chris Wilcox, Joe Smith and the draft rights to DeVon Hardin.After examining <mask>'s left big toe however, the Thunder determined that the risk of re-injury was too great and did not give <mask> a clean bill of health. As a result, on February 18, the trade was rescinded and <mask> was sent back to the Hornets. <mask> appeared in just 45 games during the 2008–09 season, missing 29 of the team's final 44 games due to left ankle injuries. <mask> finished the 2008–09 season as the franchise's all-time leader in field goal percentage (.611) and rebounds per game (11.3), while ranking fifth in total rebounds despite playing just 197 career games with the team (2,225). Charlotte Bobcats (2009–2010)
On July 28, 2009, <mask> was traded to the Charlotte Bobcats in exchange for Emeka Okafor. In his lone season with the Bobcats, <mask> played in 51 games (starting 27) and averaged 6.5 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.1 blocks despite being hampered by a stress reaction in his left foot that caused him to miss 29 games. Dallas Mavericks (2010–2011)

On July 13, 2010, <mask> was traded, along with Alexis Ajinça, to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Erick Dampier, Eduardo Nájera, Matt Carroll and cash considerations.<mask> was the perfect fit during his first season with the Mavericks, anchoring their defense on a team with Dirk Nowitzki, Jason Terry and Jason Kidd. He was credited with giving the Mavericks the 'toughness' and defensive intensity that they sorely lacked, earning selection to the NBA All-Defensive Second Team for his efforts. He helped them reach the 2011 NBA Finals, where they faced the Miami Heat. In Game 4 against the Heat, with Nowitzki under the weather and ailing backup center Brendan Haywood unable to stay in the game, <mask> had 13 points and 16 rebounds in an 86–83 win that tied the series at 2–2. He grabbed nine offensive boards, with eight coming after the first quarter. The Mavericks went on to defeat the Heat in six games, with <mask> winning his first and only championship. Following the 2010–11 season, <mask> was tipped to be a highly sought-after free agent.He was heavily courted by the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets among other teams. While they were keen to retain him, the Mavericks were cautious not to overextend on <mask> and risk missing out on Dwight Howard or Deron Williams in 2012. As a result, they offered only a two-year deal to <mask>, which he declined. Mavericks owner Mark Cuban infamously broke-up the championship-winning team, choosing to add Lamar Odom, Vince Carter and Delonte West instead of bringing back <mask>, J. J. Barea and DeShawn Stevenson. At the time, Cuban chose to proceed cautiously in the era of a new collective bargaining agreement, believing that financial flexibility (and not locking in veterans to long-term deals that would eat up future cap space) was more valuable than trying to repeat as champions. In August 2016, <mask> noted that if the Mavericks had not broken up the 2011 championship-winning team, they would have gone on to win back-to-back titles in 2012. New York Knicks (2011–2014)

On December 10, 2011, <mask> was acquired by the New York Knicks via sign-and-trade as part of a three-team trade, joining the Knicks on a reported four-year, $58 million contract.With <mask> anchoring the middle, New York's defense improved markedly in 2011–12. After finishing 22nd in defensive efficiency in 2010–11, the Knicks finished fifth in defensive efficiency in 2011–12. <mask> finished the season with a league-leading 67.9 field-goal percentage, the third highest in league history at the time behind only Wilt Chamberlain with 72.7 in 1972–73 and 68.3 in 1966–67. In May 2012, he was named the NBA Defensive Player of the Year and earned NBA All-Defensive Second Team honors. He became the first player in franchise history to win Defensive Player of the Year, and joined Alvin Robertson (1986) and Dikembe Mutombo (1995) as defensive players of the year on the Second All-Defensive Team. Due to a different voting system for All-Defensive, Oklahoma City's Serge Ibaka was the forward on the first team, while Orlando's Dwight Howard was the center. Additionally, <mask> was named to the All-NBA Third Team.In January 2013, <mask> was named an NBA All-Star for the first time in his 12-year career, earning selection as an Eastern Conference reserve for the 2013 NBA All-Star Game. In early February, he tied a franchise record with three straight 20-rebound games, becoming the first Knicks player to have 20 in three straight games since Willis Reed in December 1969. On February 27, he had 16 points and a career-best 28 rebounds in a 109–105 win over the Golden State Warriors. In May 2013, he was named in the NBA All-Defensive First Team, becoming the first Knicks player to earn first-team honors since Charles Oakley in 1994. Marred by injury early in the 2013–14 season, it took <mask> some time to get his rhythm back. A right knee injury suffered on November 5 against the Charlotte Bobcats and an upper respiratory illness endured in early January resulted in <mask> appearing in just 55 games. Second stint with Dallas (2014–2015)
On June 25, 2014, <mask> was traded back to the Dallas Mavericks along with Raymond Felton in exchange for Shane Larkin, Wayne Ellington, José Calderón, Samuel Dalembert, and two second round picks in the 2014 NBA draft.The move reunited <mask> with championship comrades Dirk Nowitzki and J. J. Barea, as well as coach Rick Carlisle. In 75 games during the 2014–15 season, <mask> averaged a double-double with 10.3 points on 66.6 percent shooting and 11.5 rebounds, in addition to 1.2 blocks. With his third season averaging a double-double while shooting at least 60 percent from the field, <mask> matched Wilt Chamberlain and joined Artis Gilmore as the only players in league history to accomplish this at least three times in their careers (DeAndre Jordan has since accomplished this feat). With a career field goal percentage of 59.1 percent at the end of the 2014–15 season, <mask> had the second-highest field goal percentage in NBA history among those with at least 2,000 makes, trailing only Gilmore. Phoenix Suns (2015–2018)
On July 9, 2015, <mask> signed a four-year, $52 million contract with the Phoenix Suns. On November 27, he suffered a strained right hamstring against the Golden State Warriors. He subsequently missed eight games.On January 21, <mask> grabbed a season-high 20 rebounds in a 117–89 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Two days later, in a 98–95 win over the Atlanta Hawks, <mask> tied a Suns record with 27 rebounds, including 17 in the first half, and also had 13 points and a season-high five assists. His 27 rebounds equaled the record total set by Paul Silas in 1971, and his 13 offensive boards set a franchise record. <mask> also became the first Suns player in franchise history to record consecutive 20-rebound games. On December 11, 2016, <mask> had 14 points and 21 rebounds in a 120–119 overtime loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Two days later, he grabbed a season-best 23 rebounds in a 113–111 overtime win over the New York Knicks.

<mask> (January 21, 1931 – September 24, 2005) was a clinical psychologist, college professor, and a founding member and past president of the Association of Black Psychologists. He is best known for his work in special education and the psychology of African Americans. Early life and family
<mask> was born in Clearwater, Florida on January 21, 1931 to his mother, Naomi Henry, a homemaker, and his father, <mask>, a musician. His parents were never married and he had a younger half-brother and half-sister, both of whom were the children of his mother and stepfather. During his childhood, Florida was still racially segregated and experiences with discrimination were common. Nevertheless, <mask> grew up with a supportive community of neighbors and family members. <mask> and his family were avid readers of two Black newspapers, the Pittsburgh Courier and the Miami Times.He grew up surrounded by frequent discussions on race, racial differences, and the accomplishments of notable Black figures. <mask> also recalls spending summers visiting Pennsylvania, where his father would fervently introduce him to all kinds of people as an attempt to educate him in the "ways of the world." His exposure to diverse issues of race and humanity would go on to inform his career and professional interests. <mask> was married twice. He first married to Johnette Turner, an artist he met at Ohio State University, and had three daughters with her. In 1988, he married his second wife, Michele Woods, and was the stepfather to her two children. Education
<mask> grew up attending a Black public elementary school and went to Booker T. Washington High School.He enrolled in Morehouse College in 1948 for his undergraduate education, intending to major in chemistry. However, after a semester of chemistry courses, <mask> discovered his interest and talent for psychology. Evelyn Barnett was the only Psychology professor at Morehouse and was one of <mask>'s first influencers in his psychology career. <mask> was also able to take several off-campus courses at Spelman College, Atlanta University, and Clark College. In 1952, he received his bachelor's degree in Psychology from Morehouse. Afterwards he enrolled for the graduate clinical psychology program at Wayne University and completed his thesis on ethnocentrism within White individuals. After completing his MA, in 1954, he was drafted into the U.S. Army as a clinical psychologist.During his two years in the army, <mask> was stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky and Bad Cannstatt, Germany. <mask> then enrolled in the doctoral program in the Department of Psychology and Educational Psychology at Ohio State University. He was advised by John Horrocks, a developmental psychologist. <mask> attributes his expertise to the program's comprehensiveness and breadth, which allowed him to apply psychological principles to his more specialized research in Black psychology and special education. He received his Ph.D in psychology from Ohio State University in 1959. Career
<mask> was employed at 9 different higher education institutions during his 33-year academic career. Immediately after receiving his Ph.D, he chose to accept a Research Assistant Professor position at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.In 1963, he moved to Fisk University in Nashville to become an Assistant Professor of Psychology. He stayed for a year and advises the master's theses of William Hayes, Moses Johnson, and Angela Owens. He had a brief summer appointment with Indiana University before moving to UCLA in 1964 as an Assistant Professor of Education. There, <mask> worked with Frank M. Hewett to develop a Ph.D program in special education. Until then, there was no doctoral program in special education at any of the University of California campuses. <mask> helped develop and teach courses in areas of gifted and retarded education, recruit faculty for the program, and form partnerships with California State University, Los Angeles. In 1966, he returned to Ohio State University as an Associate Professor of Psychology.After just two years, he was promoted to full professorship with tenure and was also appointed to Vice Chair for Staff Development. <mask> then accepted professorship at University of California, Riverside in their new School of Education. He was a faculty member for two years before becoming the Department Chair. In 1971, <mask> moved his career abroad to become Director of the University Testing Center at Halle Sellassie I University in Ethiopia. He spent his two years there mostly responsible for developing admissions tests to the university. He then accepted a position as Professor of African American Studies and Education at the University of California, Berkeley where he spent 17 years - the longest he spent at any one university. In addition to being a professor, he eventually held other academic and administrative positions at UC Berkeley.Finally, he left UC Berkeley in 1991 and <mask> ended his career at Hampton University as a Department Chair and Professor of Psychology. He stayed at Hampton until 2001 when he decided to retire. <mask>'s primary research interests were the education of exceptional children and the psychology of African Americans. His extensive experience at numerous universities helped lay the groundwork for both fields. Apart from his career as a professor, <mask> was also one of the founding members of the Association of Black Psychologists and the Association's president from 1971 to 1972. As a leader in establishing Black psychology, <mask> was active in pushing the American Psychological Association to provide more support for Black students, faculty, and the community at large. He was highly successful in receiving grants to support minority students and special education research.<mask> also contributed to the public sector by being part of President-elect Bill Clinton's Council of Advisors's Education Transition Team, and President Nixon's Task Force on Mental Health. Historical context
<mask>'s influence in Black psychology came at a time when the Black Power Movement sought Black empowerment and recognition for the Black community. In mainstream psychology, studies often concluded that Black-White differences were due to deficiencies in Black people. In an interview, <mask> explains the problem with this framework:
Now, the research always has the middle-class black child compared to the lower-class white child. Nobody ever talked about the middle-class blacks or upper middle-class blacks. Everything was lower class, and that’s a problem of methodology. It’s a methodological flaw in the research because you need to have comparable social classes and comparable races to make a valid comparison.That was never done. So, what happened, since the government was pouring tens of millions of dollars into studying the black child in relationship to the middle-class white child—there were hundreds, probably thousands, of research studies—they all concluded that on whatever dimension was studied, practically, the black child was deficient in some way. (<mask>, 2003)

Thus, the impetus for establishing the Association of Black Psychologists and for writing Black Psychology was to re-evaluate these biases and legitimize Black psychology as a field created by and for the Black community. Black Psychology
First published in 1972, <mask> wrote Black Psychology an anthology of works from prominent Black psychologists such as Joseph White, Adelbert Jenkins, and Robert Williams, that seemed "positive and relevant to what might be called black psychology.". This seminal book presented the major approaches to establishing Black psychology, and called for rejecting using the White middle class as the psychological norm and for studying the strengths instead of the weaknesses of Black people. Later editions of the book would shift from critiquing mainstream psychology to including more original theory and research. In the third edition, published in 1991, a section called "Deconstruction" was devoted to critically evaluating the accuracy and validity of mainstream literature.At the time, hundreds of studies concluded that African Americans have an external locus of control and had less ability to delay gratification, meaning that African Americans have less control of their impulses. Articles in "Deconstruction" presented studies that debunked these conclusions. On the contrary, a section titled "Reconstruction" was devoted to analyzing the strengths of Black people and maintaining psychological well-being while living in a racist society. The fourth edition introduced more research with an Afrocentric perspective, the idea that African culture is ultimately what forms the basis for African American culture and psychology. Honors

Count <mask> of Berg, also known as <mask>, <mask> of Cologne, <mask> I, Archbishop of Cologne or <mask> of Berg, Archbishop of Cologne (1185 or 1186, Schloss Burg – 7 November 1225, Gevelsberg) was archbishop of Cologne and a saint; he was notoriously murdered by a member of his own family. Early life
<mask> was born in 1185 or 1186 in Schloss Burg (present ), the younger son of Count <mask> of Berg and his wife Margarete of Guelders. He was educated at the cathedral school in Cologne. From 1198 (at the age of twelve or thirteen) he held the office of provost of St. George in Cologne and from 1199 to 1216 he also held the office of cathedral provost at Cologne Cathedral. He further acquired at various times a number of other provostships: in Cologne, Aachen, Deventer and Zutphen. He was elected Bishop of Münster in 1203 but he declined because of his age. <mask> was excommunicated by Pope <mask> in 1206, on account of his support for his cousin Adolf of Altena, archbishop of Cologne, in the interests of Philip of Swabia against Otto of Brunswick but was pardoned in 1208.In 1212, as an act of penance for his earlier rebellion, he took part in the Albigensian Crusade. He gave his allegiance to the future <mask>, Holy Roman Emperor, after the Battle of Bouvines in 1214. Archbishop of Cologne and after

<mask> was elected Archbishop of Cologne as <mask> I on 29 February 1216 and was consecrated on 24 September 1217, in which office he remained until his violent death. <mask> came to enjoy the trust of <mask>, Holy Roman Emperor, becoming imperial administrator (Reichsverweser) in 1220 and guardian of the Emperor's son Henry. In 1222, Engelbert crowned twelve-years-old Henry as King of the Romans in Aachen. <mask> remained Henry's tutor and guardian until his death. It is not clear to what extent <mask> was personally involved with the , a treaty with the ecclesiastical princes, which Frederick signed on 26 April 1220, although as Administrator of the German Kingdom () he must have had at least some input.Clearly, however, in the increased powers it gave to all ecclesiastical princes it was of benefit also to the archbishops of Cologne, and the establishment and development of the new powers was part of <mask>'s archiepiscopal strategy. When <mask> succeeded, the rights and territories of the archdiocese were in bad order, following a long period of civil unrest in Germany. He engaged himself at once in a series of campaigns and strategies to win them back and safeguard them, principally against the Dukes of Limburg and their allies the County of Cleves. <mask> in turn set up alliances with Brabant and Namur. <mask> also defended his personal inheritance as Count of Berg against Duke Waleran <mask> of Limburg. In 1218 <mask>'s elder brother Count Adolf VI of Berg died on the Fifth Crusade without a male heir. Waleran considered himself entitled to inherit the County of Berg because his son Henry was married to Irmgard of Berg, Adolf's only daughter.According to the Salic law, however, <mask> was the heir. He won the dispute in two feuds. In 1220 a peace was concluded and Waleran's claim settled by the payment of a year's revenues. Engelbert granted town privileges to many places, including Wipperfürth, Attendorn, Brilon, Siegen, Werl and Herford, Vianden, Hamm, Neuerburg and Manderscheid. During his incumbency as archbishop, Engelbert continued to fight for the re-establishment and security of the Archdiocese of Cologne both as an ecclesiastical authority and also as a secular territory. (It was said of him that despite his personal piety he was more of a monarch than a churchman). Not only did he constantly battle, by all means necessary, for the secular well-being of the lands of the archdiocese, of which he may be counted the de facto founder as a significant state; he also took energetic measures for the effective regulation of the City of Cologne itself; and he was a zealous champion of the religious throughout his archdiocese.Death

Engelbert earned the respect and affection of his subjects through his devotion to justice and his energy in maintaining law, and took great pains to ensure the well-being of the religious within his authority. However, his effectiveness in achieving his goals by all means necessary, including military action, his allegiance to the pope and the emperor, and his uncompromising defence of the law and the rights of religious persons and bodies, brought him into conflict with the nobility, including his own family, and this led to his death. His cousin Count Frederick of Isenberg was vogt of Essen Abbey, and abused his position by defrauding the nuns. Engelbert was determined to protect the nuns' interests and sought to bring Frederick to justice. On 7 November 1225 while they travelled together to Cologne from a judicial hearing in Soest, <mask> was killed, possibly by Frederick, in a defile near present-day Gevelsberg near Schwelm. It seems probable that a group of disaffected nobility was behind the attack which may have been intended to take Engelbert captive rather than kill him. <mask>'s body was taken to Cologne on a dung-cart, and when examined, found to have forty-seven wounds.Veneration
<mask>'s body was buried in Cologne Cathedral on 24 February 1226 by order of Cardinal Conrad of Urach, the papal legate, who declared him a martyr, though a formal canonization did not take place. His remains are preserved today in a Baroque shrine prepared on the authority of Ferdinand of Bavaria, archbishop of Cologne, who in 1618 also ordered the celebration of his feast on 7 November.

<mask> (born June 29, 1945) is an American former drug trafficker and former associate of Colombia's Medellin Cartel during the growth phase in cocaine trafficking, 1975–1986. Munday was featured in the 2006 Rakontur documentary, Cocaine Cowboys. Internationally renowned for his abilities to circumvent law enforcement's efforts to capture and arrest him by boat or airplane during Miami's cocaine epidemic, Munday was often referred to as the "MacGyver" of cocaine smugglers. Now known as "The last surviving "Cocaine Cowboy," Munday makes his living as an actor, writer, speaker and storyteller. His latest CD, Tall Tales, is a collection of adventurous anecdotes re-told by Munday about his days as a smuggler. In April 2018, a federal judge sentenced Munday to a 12-year prison sentence after he was found guilty on auto fraud-conspiracy charges. Early life
Munday was born and raised in Miami, Florida.His father, George "Sunny" <mask> was a professional football player, who played four seasons in the NFL and was a machine shop owner. His mother, Dorothy Duncan, was a former Miss Ohio beauty queen and school teacher, who taught at North Miami Junior High school until her retirement in 1976. <mask> has one sibling, a younger brother. When Munday was 13 years old, his father put him to work at the family-owned concrete business, M Block. There he learned how to manufacture and design concrete ventilation, benches, tables, fences, and stepping stones. In 1971, Munday took over M Blocks after his father became ill and subsequently retired. He ran the company until 1978, closing it after a rapid decline in construction in Florida.From 1972 through 1978, Munday owned and operated several different businesses simultaneously. In 1972, he opened Mike's Bike Shop, specializing in high-performance motorcycles. In 1975, he opened Ultimate Boats, a custom boat manufacturing company specializing in open fish and speed boats. In 1980, he founded LC Towing. Introduction to trafficking
The sudden death of a close friend, in 1978, left Munday responsible for removing unwanted contraband from his friend's warehouse before the man's grieving parents found it. Having thought it was only 2–10 pounds of marijuana, Munday was shocked to discover 2,000 pounds of marijuana inside a locked room. After clearing out the room, Munday gave the pot to a friend, who sold it and gave Munday $165,000 from the sale.After careful consideration and extensive planning, Munday purchased his first plane, a 680 Aero Commander, and began transporting marijuana from South America to the US, devising methods of avoiding unwanted attention from law enforcement agencies along the way. In 1980, Max Mermelstein, an American associate of the Medellin Cartel, was introduced to Jon Roberts, who was in need of a direct supplier of cocaine into the United States. Munday introduced Roberts to Rafael "Rafa" Cardona Salazar, a high-ranking member of the Medellin Cartel and Pablo Escobar's American connection. Downfall
Max Mermelstein was arrested in 1985 by Miami Police, as a multi-kilo dealer, and was implicated by a California trafficker who gave information to the DEA in exchange for a lighter sentence. Mermelstein turned state's witness against the Medellin Cartel after his arrest and provided information that led to the subsequent raids on Munday's properties on September 20, 1986. Munday, a step ahead of law enforcement, had held agents at bay by opening the gas tank of a cocaine-laden plane and pointing a flare gun at several 55-gallon gasoline drums nearby. Federal agents were noted as saying it was a standoff, and Munday escaped.Munday then fled into the Florida swamps, which he knew very well, and managed to elude capture by federal authorities until 1992, when he was finally arrested in Richmond, Virginia, by U.S. Marshals. He was sentenced to 10 years in a federal correction facility and was released on December 9, 1999. Personal life
Munday, who has never married, has an adopted daughter, Jessica Brant (born October 23, 1967), and three grandchildren. He still lives in South Florida, where he enjoys his local celebrity status as the last surviving "Cocaine Cowboy" and was coined by Miami New Times reporter Gus Garcia Roberts as "A South Florida Local Treasure". The Telegraph'''s Jacqui Goddard reports that Munday lived a low-key, frugal lifestyle both during his heyday as a drug trafficker and does so presently:

While his cocaine cohorts cruised Miami in Lamborghinis and Ferraris, Munday largely eschewed the flashy lifestyle that his tens of millions of dollars in fees could have bought him, figuring that it was better not to draw attention to himself. He channelled most of his cash into buying property, which was all forfeited after he was prosecuted.He now lives what he admits is a "frugal existence" in Miami, getting around on a pedal bicycle with his fashion-defying long, blond hair flowing behind him, his look perhaps more Dog the Bounty Hunter than Miami Vice. Munday became the last "Cocaine Cowboy" standing "who is still alive and not behind bars" following Griselda Blanco's murder in September 2012. Current career
<mask> is currently in prison. Before that he made a living as an actor, writer, speaker and storyteller. He also works occasionally as a resource for SOUTHCOM (US Military's Southern Command)'s research partnership with Florida International University. In that capacity, he has twice been invited to speak to members of such crime-fighting agencies as the DEA, the FBI, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Coast Guard, police, and armed forces, to share information helpful to counter-narcotics and counter-terrorism strategies. In 2016, Munday converted a vacant lot near his North Miami home into a community park that he named "Love-Lock Park".In April 2018, <mask> was convicted in an inter-state auto fraud-conspiracy and sentenced to 12 years in prison

<mask> ( , Levantine pronunciation: ; born 17 February 1950) is the editor-in-chief of Rai al-Youm, an Arab world digital news and opinion website. He was the editor-in-chief of the London-based pan-Arab newspaper Al Quds Al Arabi from the founding of the paper in 1989 until July 2013. Early life and career background
<mask> was born on 17 February 1950 in Deir al-Balah, a Palestinian refugee camp in the Gaza Strip. His parents Zilfa and <mask> lived in Isdud. He was one of their 11 children. After receiving his primary school education at the camp, his schooling was continued first in Jordan in 1967, and then in Cairo, Egypt. In 1970 he entered Cairo University where he studied journalism and received a diploma in English-Arabic translation.After his graduation, he started work as a journalist, initially with the Al Balaagh newspaper in Libya, then with Al Madina in Saudi Arabia. In 1978, he moved to London, where he has lived since then, and assumed a job with Asharq Al Awsat, a Saudi-owned international daily. In 1980, he set up the London office of Al Madina and in 1984 returned to Asharq Al Awsat. In 1989, Al Quds Al Arabi was founded by expatriate Palestinians and <mask> <mask> was offered the job as editor-in-chief, which he held until 2013. The paper is known for its Arab nationalism and advocacy of the Palestinian cause. It has been banned and censored repeatedly in several Arab countries for vocal criticism of what the paper alleges is their autocratic rule and excessive deference to Israel and the United States. As editor of Al Quds Al Arabi, <mask> <mask> became a public figure; he is a regular guest on Dateline London on BBC World, Sky News, Al Jazeera English and CNN World, as well as on several Arabic-language networks.He has contributed articles to British newspapers including The Guardian, The Mail on Sunday, and The Herald (Glasgow). He is a columnist for Gulf News. He has written four books. Islamic State: The Digital Caliphate was published by Saqi Books and the University of California Press in 2015. <mask> has also contributed chapters and essays to several academic and specialist books and journals. Known for his lively delivery, <mask> regularly gives talks and lectures around the world at a variety of events and venues from the Edinburgh Festival to Harvard University. Bin Laden interview
In 1996, <mask> <mask> interviewed Osama bin Laden.He had to travel through the mountains, dressed in Afghan clothing. He later called the experience his "most frightening trip". His impression of bin Laden was that he is "a phenomenon, extreme". <mask>'ida <mask> states, "I do not endorse or in any way support al-Qa'ida's agenda" and "I utterly condemn the attacks on innocent citizens in the West". Political opinions

September 11 attacks
On the fifth anniversary of the September 11 attacks <mask> said: "The events of 11 September will be remembered as the end of the US empire. This is because all empires collapse when they pursue the arrogance of power".Al-Qaeda
Atwan has repeatedly expressed his view that the war on terror is the root cause for the creation of numerous regional Al-Qaeda offshoots. At the second Dubai Debates on 31 May 2011, he stated: "We used to have one address for Al Qaeda. [...] Tora Bora, Tora Bora main square, Tora Bora highroad, the third cave on the left. [...] Now we have Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Iraq, Somalia and in the Islamic Maghreb". 2003 invasion of Iraq
He expressed sympathy with the insurgency against the US-led 2003 invasion of Iraq. Commenting on former president Saddam Hussein's extrajudicial execution he said that he would "go to the gallows with his head held high, because he built a strong united Iraq without sectarianism". Later on, Atwan claimed that Saddam Hussein mentioned that "a nation which has <mask> <mask> will not be defeated", before his execution.Israel
Speaking about the potential for a retaliatory attack by Iran in the event it was attacked by Israel, in an interview on Lebanese television in June 2007, <mask> stated, "If the Iranian missiles strike Israel, by Allah, I will go to Trafalgar Square and dance with delight". He further stated in the case of war, Iran would retaliate against its Arab neighbors, American bases in the Gulf and "Allah willing, it will attack Israel, as well". In March 2008, <mask> said that the Mercaz HaRav shooting, in which a Palestinian gunman killed eight students (aged 15 to 26), "was justified". He added that the Mercaz HaRav yeshiva is responsible for "hatching Israeli extremists and fundamentalists" and that the celebrations in Gaza following the attack symbolized "the courage of the Palestinian nation". A vocal critic of what he describes as Israel's "racist" and "apartheid" treatment of Palestinians, <mask> has advocated a peaceful, non-violent settlement to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. In his memoir, A Country of Words, <mask> says, "We have to learn to live together in peace and co-operation in a multi-cultural society in one democratic secular state for two people. One state for both peoples governed by a representative democracy and on an equal footing.We manage it here in London, it is working in South Africa, and there is enough room for everyone in Palestine. I respect the Jewish people and their religion. I do not want to destroy Israel but I do want to end racism and the current Apartheid system". According to his personal website, <mask> has been banned by Israeli authorities from visiting the Palestinian territories since 2000. As a result, he was neither able to visit his ill mother nor attend her funeral after she died in 2003. <mask> described the attacks on Israelis in Eilat
as correcting "This attack put the spotlight back on the most important struggle – that for the honor of the Arab and Islamic nation... Resistance is a legitimate right as long as land is occupied and the people and holy places are humiliated...the course of the Arab revolutions and refocused them on the most dangerous disease, namely Israeli tyranny. This disease is the cause of all the defects that have afflicted the region for the past 65 years".In an interview which aired on the Lebanese Al Mayadeen TV channel on 31 January 2015 (as translated by MEMRI), Atwan stated that "Jihad must be directed, first and foremost, against the Israeli enemy...All our guns must be turned toward that enemy, regardless of our differences, because this is the only thing that unites us". Atwan also declared that "Arabs who do not think that Israel is an enemy are neither Arabs nor Muslims". In another Al Mayadeen interview translated by MEMRI, broadcast in August 2021, Atwan contended that the American evacuation of Afghanistan presaged  what will soon happen to Israel, suggesting that Israelis should start "learning how to swim" because their "only option" will be to flee from Israel into the Mediterranean Sea "like rats fleeing a sinking ship". 2011 Libyan civil war
On 17 April 2011, speaking on BBC News Channel's Dateline London, Atwan claimed that post-revolutionary Libya would become "a hotbed of extremists'. On 4 September 2011, Mustafa Abdul Jalil, chair of the NTC, the interim free Libyan government, in an attempt to damage Atwan's reputation as a commentator, alleged that documentary proof had emerged that Atwan was on the payroll of Gaddafi. Atwan reiterated that there is no truth in this baseless allegation and is currently suing Mustafa Abdul Jalil for defamation in the UK courts. Iran's military satellite (Noor)
On 7 May 2020, Atwan mentioned in regards to Iran's recent launched military satellite to space, that: it will change the region's equations.This Arab analyzer added: Noor (satellite) will observe each American ant, and each Israeli mosquito on the Earth; and with this achievement, Iran can monitor all American and Israeli troops on the ground. Brisbane visa affair
In a scheduled visit to the Brisbane Writers Festival in September 2007, <mask>'s visa was reported as being blocked by the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO). Subsequently, this turned out to be over-enthusiastic reporting. According to ASIO, Atwan's application had been delayed by the Australian Intelligence for less than four weeks, ASIO said "It is false to suggest it's anything to do with the media campaign or conspiracy theories, We had to seek some additional information. Dr <mask>'s application was treated like everybody else's". Criticism
Following an October 2003 article in which <mask> claimed that the U.S. is to blame for the Arab world's hatred of it, a Yemenite journalist and columnist for the London Arabic-language daily Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, Munir Al-Mawari, stated: "The Abd Al <mask>wan on CNN is completely different from the <mask> <mask> on the Al Jazeera network or in his Al Quds Al Arabi daily. On CNN, <mask> speaks solemnly and with total composure, presenting rational and balanced views.This is in complete contrast with his fuming appearances on Al Jazeera and in Al Quds Al Arabi, in which he whips up the emotions of multitudes of viewers and readers". In response to Atwan's legitimization of the Mercaz HaRav shooting in March 2008, Lior Ben-Dor, a spokesman at the Israeli Embassy in London, said: "The problem is that when addressing the British public, he tends to hide his true opinions and ideology – his support for terror and the murder of civilians. This article reveals <mask>'s real colors, a supporter of fundamentalism and terror, and hence he should be treated accordingly". Resignation
On 9 July 2013, <mask> stated in his final editorial at Al-Quds Al-Arabi that he was resigning from his two posts as editor-in-chief and as chairman of the board. Entitled "Dear Readers...Goodbye until we meet soon, God Willing", his editorial explained that external pressures had influenced his decision. He chronicled his own journey and the reasons behind the unprecedented success of Al Quds Al Arabi. He stated that over a period of a quarter of a century, he had received death threats from the "Arab, Foreign, and Israeli security services".He insisted that he had never compromised on his ideals and took pride in his profession, "leaving with his head held high".
