		GEORGE W. BLACK, wholesale and retail dealer in all kinds of tobacco, his factory being known as 153, is a native of Washington County having been born March 26, 1842 in the house where he now lives.
		George Black, the second son of Daniel, was born in 1793, at Shippensburg, Pa and was reared to agricultural pursuits from boyhood.
		Black gratified their wants by introducing his far-famed "Stoga." He married, in 1832, Julie, daughter of Jacob Shaffer, one of the first watch and clock makers in the borough of Washington, and who also made the old-fashioned silverware, some of which is still in the possession of our subject.

	Walter Rodney, George Jackson: Black Revolutionary
		He was given a sentence of one year to life because he was fl, and he was kept incarcerated for years under the most dehumanizing conditions because he discovered that flness need not be a badge of servility but rather could be a banner for uncompromising revolutionary struggle.
		The greatness of George Jackson is that he served as a dynamic spokesman for the most wretched among the oppressed, and he was in the vanguard of the most dangerous front of struggle.
		Black intellectuals who used to be completely alienated from any form of struggle except their personal hustle now recognize the need to ally with and take their bearings from the street forces of the fl unemployed, ghetto dwellers and prison inmates.

	Shades of Black
		Black received a general arts degree from Manitoba in 1933 and his first job was with the accounting firm of Millar, Macdonald and Co., where he worked by day while attending lectures and studying for his chartered accountancy certificate by night.
		Black, the new president charged with the dirty work of carrying out the reorganisation, was never one to rush decisions; he would sometimes sit for long periods at his limed-oak desk, balancing a model propeller from his Montreal days between his fingers while mulling over a situation from every angle.
		George Black's fascination with the good and the great was not unappreciated by Conrad, who, according to a close friend, vowed early on that when he was older `he wasn't just going to talk about people -- he was going to know them'.

		George Jackson, like Malcolm X before him, educated himself painfully behind prison bars to the point where his clear vision of historical and contemporary reality and his ability to communicate his perspective frightened the U.S. power structure into physically liquidating him.
		The recent prison rebellions at Folsom, Pontiac, Joliet, and Reidsville are testaments to the life and untiring work of George Jackson to expose the inhumane conditions suffered by the millions of men and women warehoused in the prisons and jails of America.
		On August 21, 1971, George L. Jackson, a leader of the Black Panther Party, died from multiple bullet wounds at San Quentin Prison.

	George Crumb \| Black Angels (Images I)
		Black Angels is probably the only quartet to have been inspired by the Vietnam War.
		The image of the "fl angel" was a conventional device used by early painters to symbolize the fallen angel.
		This surrealism is heightened by the use of certain unusual string effects, e.g., pedal tones (the intensely obscene sounds of the Devil-Music); bowing on the "wrong" side of the strings (to produce the viol-consort effect); trilling on the strings with thimble-capped fingers.

		Black became known for taking over newspapers and chopping away the fat (and much of the meat as well), resulting in job losses.
		Black's holding company, Ravelston Corp., dismissed the report, saying there were "factual and tainting misrepresentations and inaccuracies" and that the issues would be resolved in court.
		Two months later, in an eyebrow-raising twist, Black, his chauffeur and a personal assistant were caught on a security video removing 12 boxes of files from the Toronto headquarters of Hollinger Inc.

		Just as affluent white people aren't too interested in the plight of poor whites, neither are affluent fls especially concerned with their brothers in the ghetto---in fact, they may be even more eager to distance themselves from the ghetto than white people are trying to to distance themselves from the trailer park.
