Last year Jasmine Twitty was appointed to the Easley municipal bench in upstate South Carolina. What's remarkable about that is that Judge Twitty is only 26 years old. In a short "as told to" essay posted on actress Amy Poehler's "Smart Girls" website, Judge Twitty describes her unusual career trajectory. After graduating from the College of Charleston as a political science major, the Greenville, S.C.-native was hired as a night clerk at the local county bond court. She says she spent a year and a half coordinating hearings, dealing with paperwork and working long hours. "I realized I had the job experience to make the leap to judgeship. No one had set out for a judgeship at 24 before, but I ran my goals by my family," she writes. "They encouraged me to go for it. I wasn’t required to attend law school because in South Carolina, summary court judges don’t need a law degree—they’re appointed. I started talking to people."

However, she does nothing to change it, Burnie Sanders Voted for the crime bill!?

Nicodemus Historic District, Nicodemus, Graham County, Kansas. (Library of Congress, Prints and Photographs Division) A few years after the Civil War ended, promoters determined to establish an all-black town on the Kansas frontier took out an ad in a Kentucky bulletin promising membership in “The Largest Colored Colony in America” for a small down payment: “All Colored People that want to go to Kansas, on September 5th, 1877, Can do so for $5.00.” The bulletin explained those wanting to join this new colony, which would be called Nicodemus , “can do so by paying the sum of one dollar ($1.00), and this money is to be paid by the first of September, 1877, in installments of twenty-five cents at a time, or otherwise as may be desired.” Hundreds of black people from Kentucky took up the call and set off for the new colony in Kansas, traveling with the promise of a new and better life. One of the settlers, Willianna Hickman, joined 300 people leaving Kentucky for Nicodemus in 187

Fort Mose, Fla.: The First 'Emancipation Proclamation' Founded in 1738, Fort Mose, located just north of St. Augustine, is the United States' first free black settlement. Amid the fight for control of the New World, Great Britain, Spain and other European nations relied on African slave labor. The king of Spain issued an edict: Any male slave of the British colonies who escaped to the Spanish colony of Florida would be set free — as long as he declared his allegiance to Spain and the Catholic Church. The settlement was abandoned when the British took possession of Florida in 1763. Captions by Monée Fields-White Rosewood, Fla.: A Massacre That Won't Be Forgotten Rosewood , established in 1870, was the site of what could be considered one of the worst race riots in U.S. history. By 1915 it was a small, predominantly black town — with a population of just slightly more than 300. On New Year's Day in 1923, a young white woman claimed that a
