Thought for Today
Today in History
bom in
Today is Thursday, March 21, the 80th day of 2002. There are
285 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On March 21,1965, more than 3,000 civil rights demonstrators
led by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. began their march from
Selma to Montgomery, Ala.
On this date:
In 1685, composer Johann Sebastian Bach was
Eisenach, Germany.
In 1790, Thomas Jefferson reported to President Washington in
New York as the new secretary of state.
In 1804, the French civil code, the “Codb Napoleon,” was
adopted.
In 1806, Mexican statesman Benito Juarez was bom in Oaxaca.
In 1871, journalist Henry M. Stanley began his famous expedi-
tion to Africa to locate the missing Scottish missionary David
Livingstone.
In 1945, during World War II, Allied bombers began four days
of raids over Germany.
In 1946, the United Nations set up temporary headquarters at
Hunter College in New York.
In 1960, some 70 people were killed in Sharpeville, South
Africa, when police fired on demonstrators.
In 1963, the Alcatraz federal prison island in San Francisco Bay
was emptied of its last inmates at the order of Attomev General
Robert F. Kennedy.
In 1972, the Supreme Court ruled that states may not require at
least a year’s residency for voting eligibility.
Ten years ago: During a debate in Buffalo, N.Y, Democratic
presidential front-runner Bill Clinton sought to turn the tables on
rival Jerry Brown by accusing the former California governor of
hypocrisy on the issue of campaign contributions. President Bush
and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl met at Camp David, Md.
