Suppose that George is trapped by the tree, as before, and that he will die unless we cut off his leg. But imagine now that George is unconscious and cannot be asked for his consent. Imagine, as well, that if we try to bring him to consciousness first, so as to obtain his consent, too much precious time will be lost, and it will be too late to save him. Can't we amputate his leg anyway since this is the only way to save George's life even though we're unable to get his permission first?

I ordered a Tilting TV Wall Mount EGLT1. The order was acknowledged on Sept. 3. I did not receive it, so I emailed helpmehelpyou@echogear.com on Sept. 15 and Sept. 19. I received no reply.

Ms. Lee had always lived simply, despite her fame and mounting wealth, and long shared a modest brick home in Monroeville with her older sister, Alice, who died in 2014. Ms. Lee could be seen around town in sweatpants looking for bargains at a Dollar General Store, washing her clothes at a local Laundromat, drinking coffee at a McDonald’s or eating at David’s Catfish House, where her usual iced tea and a small plate of catfish would cost about $6.

Around the same time, the Corporation decided on prices for the naming rights to HMS and many of the University’s other schools, according to the former Harvard official.

I was taking an AP government class, junior year, I think. I don’t remember exactly what the assignment was, but for some reason, we were creating campaign collateral, and I created these Obama stickers. My dad's been involved in politics my entire life. I worked on campaigns, I’ve worked the conventions, and because of that I felt connected and excited about the project so, I created these stickers and part of the assignment was to pass them out. A classmate took what I created, ripped it up, shredded it in front of my face, and said, “You're only doing this because he's Black and you're Black, too.”

I think one of the beauties of Spelman and HBCUs in general, is that you get to have more nuanced conversations around things like politics. We’re not talking about “is it because he's Black or not,” we're talking about what Obama’s actual policies are, and what stances he’s taking on issues. The Blackness isn't the first thing everybody sees, because it’s something we all have in common.
