That February is African-American Railroader Month, according to my Norfolk Southern calender. Now I have looked thru the rest ot the calender and I see no Hispanic, Chineese, White, Native American, etc. month? What makes the black railroader so friggin important that they have their own month? Stupid!

    What are they celebrating? All the miles of rocks they busted up while working on the chain gangs? It seems there would be a month to celebrate all the chinese workers that helped lay the rails across this country! GHD

    JEEEZ, they getting a day for everything didnt ya know that?

    Mayor of Tampa Florida declared every third Sunday of the month , African American Shopping Sunday here.

    Did you know that there are over 150 African American National Organizations and only 4 Caucasion Organizations and 3 of those four are concidered RACIST?

    The only "Afro Americans" I ever saw on the railroad were Gandy Dancers.[}:)]

    If they're still moving, put another round in them!
