The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

Despite what proponents of a ballot measure to stop the hunting of bobcats and mountain lions in Colorado claim, hunters say science is on their side. Several hunters reached out to this reporter after he authored an article last week about the so-called “trophy hunting” of bobcats and mountain lions. Initiative 91, on the Colorado ballot this November, would put an end to the practice. An organization supporting hunters, Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Management, said that the “trophy hunting” language is misleading, and in fact hunters play an important role in ecology.

Boone County, KY

As an educator in the Boone County Public School district, I am passionate about public education. I began my career as an English teacher at Boone County High School in 1998, and it quickly became my home. It is where I belong. Over these years I have watched our district grow, and my proudest moments are walking into our school commons each day and seeing the diversity of students and their diversity of interests. I have been fortunate to teach future carpenters, doctors, judges, and plumbers. I have watched my students start their own salons, trucking, car repair, and other small businesses. I have watched thousands of students leave our campus and become successful, thriving adults.
