CHAPTER 4
Party Time
It was around six o'clock in the evening. Abour fifty men, some crudely dressed as American Indians, appeared at the back of the Old South Meeting House.
Two by two they began marching to Griffins Wharf. Other men and boys joined them on the way. Eventually the group numbered some one hundred and fifty.
Their costumes varied. Some looked
vaguely like Mohawk or Narragansett Indians.
The men carried axes and hatchets and wore wool blankets and maybe feathers from goose quills. They had smeared their faces with paint, burned cork, charcoal, or soot from the fireplace.

Why Look like Fake Indians?
Besides hiding their identity, there
may have been other reasons for the disguises. Many Bostonians feared and
respected Mohawk Indians.
The rebels may have wanted to appear
as fierce as those warriors. Or they might have wanted to look as un-British as possible. Racism may have been at play-the rebels acting and looking like people they considered "savages." We have no record of what real Indians thought of the rebels unconvincing disguises.

难以置信的人文体贴与项目难度及完成度。9/11纪念碑上2977个名字是设计师Amanda Sachs-Mangold历经数年研究每一位遇难者的故事与其他遇难者的联系，精心按meaningful adjacencies的理念安排在一起的。来悼念的亲友可以看到遇难的亲人和其他有密切关系的人名在一起，共同缅怀逝者，而不是僵硬地按姓氏排序，亲友被分开。这就是为什么图三里那对遇难的北京夫妻的名字是连在一起的。从访谈里可以看出，Amanda Sachs-Mangold几乎对每一个名字都了然于心。

911纪念池看到一对北京夫妻的名

看到名字觉得应该是华人，一开始猜测也许他们是一起在世贸工作的好朋友，后来逛了纪念馆才知道，原来两人是夫妻，退休后去美国看孩子，在美国待了快一年，失事飞机正好是他们回国行程的第一段航班。
他俩的孩子现在也许已经是他们父母当时的年纪了，希望他们一切都好。

foresight of the planners, and maybe
anybody's foresight." But that's not an explanation. I's simply the definition of a comple situation. And such a situation requires a different kind of solution from the command-and-control paradigm officials relied on.
Of all organizations, it was oddly enough Wal-Mart that best recognized the complex nature of the circumstances, according to a case study from Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, Briefed on what was developing, the giant discount retailer's chief executive officer, Lee Scott, issued a simple edict. "This company will respond to the level of this disaster," he was remembered to have said in a meeting with his upper management. "A lot of you are going to have to make decisions above your level. Make the best decision that you can with the information that's available to you at the time, and, above all, do the right thing."
As one of the officers at the meeting later recalled, "That was it." The edict was passed down to store managers and set the tone for how people were expected to react. On the most immediate level, Wal-Mart had 126 stores closed due to damage and power outages. Twenty thousand employees and their family members were displaced. The initial focus was on helping them.
And within forty-eight hours, more than half of the damaged stores were up and running again. But according to one executive on the scene, as word of the disaster's impact on the city's population began filtering in from Wal-Mart employees on the ground, the priority shifted from reopening stores to "Oh, my God, what can we do to help these people?"
Acting on their own authority, Wat-Mart's store managers began distributing diapers, water, baby formula, and ice to resi-

dents. Where FEMA still hadn't figured out how to requisition supplies, the managers fashioned crude paper-slip credit systems for first responders, providing them with food, sleeping bags, toi-letries, and also, where available, rescue equipment like hatchets, ropes, and boots. The assistant manager of a Wal-Mart store engulfed by a thirty-foot storm surge ran a bulldozer through the store, loaded it with any items she could salvage, and gave them all away in the parking lot. When a local hospital told her it was running short of drugs, she went back in and broke into the store's pharmacy-and was lauded by upper management for it.
Senior Wal-Mart officials concentrated on setting goals, measuring progress, and maintaining communication lines with employees at the front lines and with official agencies when they could. In other words, to handle this complex situation, they did not issue instructions. Conditions were too unpredictable and constantly changing. They worked on making sure people talked. Wal-Mart's emergency operations team even included a member of the Red Cross. (The federal government declined Wal-Mart's invitation to participate.) The team also opened a twenty-four-hour call center for employees, which started with eight operators but rapidly expanded to eighty to cope with the load.
Along the way, the team discovered that, given common goals to do what they could to help and to coordinate with one another, Wal-Mart's employees were able to fashion some extraordinary Solutions. They set up three temporary mobile pharmacies in the city and adopted a plan to provide medications for free at all of their stores for evacuees with emergency needs-even without a prescription. They set up free check cashing for payroll and other checks in disaster-area stores. They opened temporary clinics to provide emergency personnel with inoculations against

flood-borne illnesses. And most prominently, within just two days of Katrina's landfall, the company's logistics teams managed to contrive ways to get tractor trailers with food, water, and emergency equipment past roadblocks and into the dying city. They were able to supply water and food to refugees and even to the National Guard a day before the government appeared on the scene. By the end Wal-Mart had sent in a total of 2,498 trailer loads of emergency supplies and donated $3.5 million in merchandise to area shelters and command centers.
"If the American government had responded like Wal-Mart has responded, we wouldn't be in this crisis," Jefferson Parish's top official, Aaron Broussard, said in a network television inter-vie at the time.
The lesson of this tale has been misunderstood. Some have argued that the episode proves that the private sector is better than the public sector in handling complex situations. But it isn't. For every Wal-Mart, you can find numerous examples of major New Orleans businesses that proved inadequately equipped to respond to the unfolding events from the utility corporations, which struggled to get the telephone and electrical lines working; to the oil companies, which kept too little crude oil and retinery capacity on hand for major disruptions. Public officials could also claim some genuine successes. In the early days of the crisis, for example, the local police and firefighters, lacking adequate equip-ment, recruited an armada of Louisiana sportsmen with flat-bottom boats and orchestrated a breathtaking rescue of more than sixty-two thousand people trom the water, roottops, and attics of the deluged city.

When you lose your son you lose more than a child you lose a piece of your heart and your joy. Life is forever altered, and nothing can ever fill that space. Yet in my soul, he remains, my precious boy, forever loved. His laughter, his smile, and his love are woven into who I am. My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

昨天在Netflix 上看了电影LBJ （导演Rob Reiner如今都已经以很不幸的方式去世了也是很让人感慨）。看到这么一个很有意思的载入史册的场景（图1）。LBJ在白人种族歧视其他有色人种的问题上看的比谁都透彻（图2）。肯尼迪遇刺身亡后，没人指望他能接过肯尼迪的民权火炬，谁知他不仅在接任后不到一年就通过了“1964年民权法案”，还在任内实现了美国人民的安全网系统，如Medicare及Medicaid。

President Kennedy was assassinated on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas. Later that day, Johnson took the presidential oath of office aboard Air Force One. Cecil Stoughton's iconic photograph of Johnson taking the oath of office as Mrs. Kennedy looks on is the most famous photo ever taken aboard a presidential aircraft.
Johnson was sworn in by District Court judge Sarah T. Hughes and is to date the only president in U.S. history to be sworn in by a woman.

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.
