  3. A gift of $2.2 million to the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, will create a special chair for the study of atheism — a bequest that the donor hopes will help “make atheism legitimate.”

    According to a statement from the university, the large gift came from 83-year-old entrepreneur Louis J. Appignani, with the money slated to establish the Appignani Foundation Chair for the Study of Atheism, Humanism, and Secular Ethics within the University of Miami’s College of Arts and Sciences.

    It’s a newfound academic chair that will “propel new interdisciplinary courses, scholarship, and research concerning the philosophical underpinnings, ethical status, and implications of atheism, as well as its historical and cultural significance,” the college said.

    But for Appignani, the project has a much broader appeal.

    “I’m trying to eliminate discrimination against atheists,” Appignani, told the New York Times. “So this is a step in that direction, to make atheism legitimate.”

    The chair will be held by a scholar who will study and analyze atheism, which the university is describing as “a philosophical approach that emphasizes the methods and techniques of science, logic, and reason in dealing with questions of knowledge, ethics, politics, and social policy.” The individual selected for that role will teach at least one course each year on the philosophy, history or influence of atheism.

    Tom LeBlanc, executive vice-president and provost of the University of Miami, said in a statement that the college is currently scouting to fill the position, and expressed gratitude to Appignani for giving such a large sum for its creation.

    “The topics of naturalistic ethics and arguments for and against theism have been part of Western education for most of its history,” LeBlanc said. “At the University of Miami — as in most other American universities — these questions are examined in courses regularly offered by multiple academic departments.”

    The difference will be that this new chair will “enhance” the “multidisciplinary approach to these longstanding and important subjects.”

    LeBlanc told the New York Times that he’s hoping people understand that the university isn’t advocating for atheism and is, instead, merely teaching about the theological worldview.

    “We didn’t want anyone to misunderstand and think that this was to be an advocacy position for someone who is an atheist,” he told the outlet. “Our religion department isn’t taking an advocacy position when it teaches about Catholicism or Islam. Similarly, we’re not taking an advocacy position when we teach about atheism or secular ethics.”

    Appignani is also the founder of the Appignani Humanist Legal Center, an atheist law firm that is part of the American Humanist Association; the group routinely gets involved in First Amendment disputes.

  7. By Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan

    Thursday, Jan. 28, was a cold morning in Durham, North Carolina. Wildin David Guillen Acosta went outside to head to school, but never made it. He was thrown to the ground and arrested by agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He has been in detention ever since. Wildin, now 19 years old, fled his home in Olancho, Honduras more than two years ago. He was detained when crossing the border, but, as he was a minor at the time, he was allowed to join his family in North Carolina. He started out at Riverside High School, and was set to graduate this June. He wanted to become an engineer. Instead, he has been locked up in the notorious Stewart Detention Center in rural Lumpkin, Georgia, which is run by the for-profit Corrections Corporation of America.

    Wildin is just one of hundreds of thousands of children who have fled the violence of Central America in recent years, either alone or, often, with their mothers. They come primarily from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador. Honduras is now one of the world’s most violent countries, and Olancho has one of the highest murder rates there, causing many to flee. The U.S. Army and the Drug Enforcement Administration both have special-forces units permanently stationed there, joining in counternarcotics operations that have also killed Hondurans.

    Wildin was arrested in part of a series of immigration raids, dubbed “Operation Border Guardian.” Many believe its intent was to create fear among those still in Central America who might consider taking the perilous journey north to the U.S. “As I have said repeatedly, our borders are not open to illegal migration,” Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson said at the time. “If you come here illegally, we will send you back consistent with our laws and values.” Immediately after Wildin’s arrest, family, friends, classmates and teachers at Riverside High demonstrated their values, rallying to support him and five others who were similarly arrested. The group of imprisoned youth is often referred to as the “NC6.” Durham’s Human Relations Commission appealed to ICE to release him, as did the Durham City Council.

    “There is so much fear in our community, because, unfortunately, he is not the only child that they have detained,” said one of Wildin’s teachers, Ellen Holmes, in a support video. “It’s creating absences and dropouts in our schools. It’s creating just a huge feeling of fear inside our school and in our community.” While there is scant evidence that the mass arrests and deportations have slowed the flow of Central American refugees to the U.S., they have certainly scared students and families currently here, forcing them to keep their kids out of school lest they be swept up like Wildin.

    Wildin’s request for asylum was denied, and on March 19, an immigration judge denied his appeal to reopen his case. He was set for deportation back to Honduras on March 20. However, bowing to the enormous public pressure brought by this youth-led grass-roots organizing, ICE Director Sarah Saldana issued an order that morning, delaying his deportation. Wildin’s case for asylum is before the Board of Immigration Appeals, a process that could take months or even years to resolve.

    “He should be released. Ninety days, by any standard, is an egregious period of time to be spending in detention,” Paromita Shah told us on the “Democracy Now!” news hour. She is the associate director of the National Immigration Project of the National Lawyers Guild, and was in Washington, D.C., with several Riverside High students and teacher Ellen Holmes, visiting members of Congress and Education Secretary John B. King Jr., asking them to support Wildin.

    Axel Herrera was one of the students who went to Washington. Like Wildin, he was an undocumented immigrant from Honduras, but entered at the age of 7, and thus qualified for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA. “We’ve talked to representatives. We’ve made calls. We’ve sent letters. We’ve gotten support from a few of our congressmen in North Carolina to ask for their release,” he told us. “But we haven’t had the response we’ve wanted, which is to have Wildin and have some of the other NC6 back at our schools.”

    Wildin Acosta remains locked up in ICE’s private prison in Georgia. His request that his schoolwork be sent to him was initially denied. After public outcry, the warden relented. Many high-school students get detention for refusing to study. Wildin is stuck in permanent detention, and he has to fight for his right to study. That is determination and commitment Jeh Johnson and everyone at ICE should agree is “consistent with our values.”

  10. When a pair of hooded armed robbers barged into a GameStop store in Silver Spring, Maryland, Friday night, they may have wondered if anyone would put up a fight.

    Image source: WRC-TV

    But not likely a 7-year-old boy.

    Image source: WRC-TV

    Surveillance video showed that when the two masked men entered the store, one of them apparently tried to grab the boy — but the kid wasn’t having it.

    Instead he’s seen punching the robber in the gut a few times — all while holding the stuffed Yoshi toy from the Mario Brothers game he and his parents were set to purchase from the store.

    “Well, he’s tough,” the boy’s mother, who didn’t want to be identified, told WRC-TV. “He’s tough, and you know, I think instincts come out in situations like that.”

    After the 7-year-old did battle with the robber, he and his parents — who were the only customers in the store at the time — were ordered to get against a wall by the counter, Montgomery County police told WRC.

    “It was scary. You’re never prepared for something like that. You’re not,” the boy’s father, who also didn’t want to be identified, told the station. “So, you don’t wish it on your worst enemy.”

    There were two store clerks on duty at the time, and the robbers told them to get on the floor while they stole cash and personal property, police told WRC. Then the masked men took off through the front door, police added.

    No one was hurt, WRC reported.

    The boy’s parents told the station they hope the suspects are caught to ease their son’s mind.

    “When it’s a young child, it’s especially upsetting and infuriating for us because there’s some innocence that’s lost there and there’s some fear introduced into his life that, of course, he doesn’t deserve,” his dad told WRC.

    One small bright spot is that the store manager gave the boy the stuffed Yoshi toy for free after the altercation, his father told the station.

    Image source: WRC-TV

    Image source: WRC-TV

    “He considers it something that helped keep him safe,” the dad told WRC. “He carries it with him everywhere he goes now. He takes care of it like it’s his own child. It’s become, you know, a bit of a lucky charm.”

    The suspects are described as two males in their 20s, about 5 feet 6 inches and 170 pounds, who were wearing black hooded sweatshirts, black pants, gloves and masks.

  13. An activist group is taking aim at the U.S. Air Force Academy for allegedly favoring Christianity over other faiths, with plans to erect a billboard in Colorado Springs, Colorado, air a 15-second TV ad and hire a plane to run a banner in the skies that asks a controversial question about Jesus.

    The campaign is being waged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation — a group devoted to the separation of church and state — and it comes as President Barack Obama plans to visit the Air Force Academy on June 2 to speak at commencement, the Air Force Times reported.

    “Welcome Mr. President To Our AF Academy,” the billboard reads. “Why is Jesus Commander In Chief Here?”

    Military Religious Freedom Foundation

    Military Religious Freedom Foundation

    Military Religious Freedom Foundation president Mikey Weinstein said in a statement that the U.S. Air Force Academy has not been keeping the separation of church and state in check.

    “The United States Air Force Academy’s adhering to the constitutionally guaranteed right of separation of church and state in the U.S. military is a train wreck,” he said.

    Weinstein continued, “The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has been in literally countless fights with USAFA since February of 2004. MRFF currently represents 414 cadets, faculty and staff at USAFA, of which 372 are Protestant or Roman Catholic.”

    Watch the TV spot below:

    The billboard will be displayed from May 23-June 5. As for the airplane, it will show a message that reads, ”WHY IS JESUS COMMANDER IN CHIEF AT USAFA? MRFF.ORG” on May 31 and June 1 — and the 15-second TV spot will fun 1,322 times from May 27-June 2 on MSNBC, CNBC, CNN and Fox News, according to the statement.

  15. ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Hispanic voters in Florida, New Mexico and California have waved Mexican flags and bashed Donald Trump piñatas – clashing with police, at times – to protest the Republican presidential contender’s hard line approach to immigration.

    Yet far from the protests, an increasingly vocal Hispanic minority is speaking out in favor of the brash billionaire. They are backing Trump even in the face of resentment and suspicion from friends and family, who are among the overwhelming majority of non-white voters opposed to the New York businessman’s candidacy.

    “I’m not ashamed to vote for Trump. I’d just rather not have the conversation with my family,” said Natalie Lally, a 22-year-old college student from New York City whose large extended family has Colombian roots.

    She says silence fell over her grandmother’s living room when she admitted her support for Trump during a recent family gathering that included more than 30 relatives.

    “They just kind of seemed uneasy,” she recalled. “And my uncle just said, ‘Why?’ ”

    In the border towns of Texas, the working-class neighborhoods of New York, and even inside Trump’s overwhelmingly white rallies, the pro-Trump Hispanic minority is willing to risk public and private ridicule to defend the GOP’s presumptive presidential nominee. So far, however, they’re not getting much help from Trump’s campaign, which has yet to launch an outreach effort to improve his standing with the growing voting bloc.

    Approximately 23 percent of Hispanics said they’d vote for Trump in a May poll conducted by Fox News. Other recent polling places Trump far lower. The GOP’s last presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, has cited his poor standing with Hispanic voters as one of his biggest regrets from the last election, when he earned 27 percent of the Hispanic vote.

    Trump’s team acknowledges the importance of the voting bloc, but says there has been little organized outreach so far.

    “Any demographic that is growing at the rate of the Latino voters obviously will be of the utmost importance to a presidential campaign,” Trump aide Ed Brookover said when asked about Hispanic outreach. “I know it’s been talked about, but I think it’s a touch early. I don’t know of anything organized.”

    Trump’s team expects to work closely with the Republican National Committee, however, which has had paid Hispanic outreach staff on the ground in nine states.

    Trump supporters are eager to help.

    Carlos Guerra, a 24-year-old son of Mexican immigrants who lives along the border in Laredo, Texas, says he wants to do more than wear Trump’s “Make American Great Again” hat around town.

    “Our town is sick of the violence from Mexico,” he said, applauding Trump’s plan to build a massive wall on the border. “People are dying every day.”

    Some of his family members also support Trump, but “they’re not as loud about it,” he said.

    “I have talked to a lot of people and of course they criticize me,” Guerra added. “They ask, ‘Do you hate your race?’ I feel discriminated against, honestly.”

    Trump’s policies and tone on immigration have sparked passionate – and sometimes violent – reactions from minority voters.

    His vow to complete a massive wall along the Mexican border is a pillar of his agenda. He has also promised to impose a temporary ban on Muslims entering the U.S., embraced plans to deport more than 11 million immigrants in the country illegally and described Mexican immigrants as rapists and criminals in his announcement speech.

    He lashed out at protesters who clashed with police outside his Tuesday rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The protesters, including many Hispanics, waved Mexican flags while others hurled rocks at police.

    “The protesters in New Mexico were thugs who were flying the Mexican flag,” Trump wrote on Twitter. “The rally inside was big and beautiful, but outside, criminals!”

    During a Wednesday appearance in Anaheim, he claimed “a great relationship with the Hispanics.”

    “The Mexican people are great. They’re going to vote for me like crazy,” he said.

    Outside the Anaheim event, a small group of protesters pummeled and decapitated a Trump piñata as police arrested more protesters.

    Heated protests have followed the Republican leader across the country, particularly in urban centers and states, like New Mexico and California, with large Hispanic populations.

    Yet there are often a handful of Hispanic supporters inside his rallies. Before Trump took the stage in Albuquerque, Mary Jo Andrade, 37, a licensed mental health counselor, said her 17-year-old daughter is often teased in school for backing him.

    “She hears, ‘Oh, you’re not real Mexican. You’re not true Mexican,’ ” Andrade said and added, “A lot of the time I tell her, ‘Keep your silence because of that.’ “

  17. Donald Trump does not drink alcohol and regularly states he has never had a drink. However, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel discovered a setting on YouTube videos that makes the presumptive Republican presidential nominee sound like he is intoxicated.

    The speed adjustment pops up when you click on the gear icon in the lower-right side of the video screen. Setting the speed to “.5″ produces some funny results.

    Kimmel explained the trick to his “Jimmy Kimmel Live” audience Wednesday night. “Apparently, YouTube has a half-speed function which makes Donald — well, watch,” Kimmel said.

    Take a look and judge for yourself. Does a half-speed Trump sound drunk?
