On February 26:
1844 James E. O'Hara, a two-term congressman from NC,
is born in New York.
1926 Boxer "Tiger Flowers took the middleweight title from
Harry Greb and defended his new title in a return match.
He becomes the first Black to hold the boxing crown at this
weight.

We only got 1.5 inches of snow. So dissapointing:( I'm one of
the few people I know who likes winter weather.
In my room working on scanning pictures from a trip with the
Black Women's Collective to Senegal in 1982 while watching
a tape of VH1's "Bling'd:Blood,Diamonds and Hip Hop". You
gotta see it!
