An African-American instructor says her race and sex played a role in the University of Minnesota’s decision to postpone and ultimately squash her shot at a tenured position.

Requiring fingerprints and mugshot-like photos of children whose parents provide child care in their homes are examples of the unnecessary regulations lawmakers say are causing providers to quit. “It is very hurtful to them to have a business that subjects their children to this kind of process,” said Sen.

She said providers’ children shouldn’t be treated like criminals and required to take a photo similar to wanted posters hung up in a post office. https://www.twincities.com/2018/05/07/home-day-c...

ATLANTA — Retired Lt. Col. Oliver North, the gung-ho Marine at the center of the Iran-Contra affair three decades ago, was named president Monday of the National Rifle Association, giving it star power as it faces a powerful backlash over the massacres in Florida and Las Vegas. North, 74, will be the biggest celebrity to lead the 5-million-member gun lobby since Hollywood leading man Charlton Heston, who famously declared in 2000 that his guns would have to be taken “from my cold, dead hands.” https://www.twincities.com/2018...
