From the mission statement:
At a time when divisiveness among
our country's diverse races and cultures often seems to be on the rise,
there is an increased need for institutions that can help foster understanding,
respect and a spirit of cooperation between people of different races and
backgrounds. That's why we are developing a compelling new national museum
and education center which will inspire interracial understanding in today's
society through the eyes of history, namely through the stories of courage
and cooperation among escaping slaves and those who helped them on the
Underground Railroad prior to the Civil War.
It's scheduled for completion in 2003, but they already have a very informative website. Visit The Underground Railroad Freedom Center.

Shout out to Nancy Hwa for sending it to me in the first place.
Mr. T
I pity the fool who doesn't love Mr.
T! Former Chicago bouncer and bodyguard Laurence Tureaud (and
yeah, I just know that) took a lot of gold chains and even more attitude
and became the legendary Mr. T. Now some guys from Idaho (and others)
have created a whole bunch of stories about Mr. T versus Stuff, starting
with Mr. T versus
Superman. The basic idea is take really bad vidcaps of Mr. T
and other TV/movie personalties and make them fight. The NEW
central
repository for all things T is the Mr.
T vs Everything page (or you can try this Yahoo category
page). My personal favorite -- Mr.
T versus Kathie Lee Gifford.
