Jolt no, Baccala yes
 |
Dear Friends, National Review 's offices are closed today, and tomorrow, and, effectively, on Friday. Alas, no Morning Jolt. But who needs it, when on our roofs tonight there will be an Evening Jolt caused by reindeer hooves and jingle bells and a fat guy cramming himself in the chimney? On a personal note, I encourage those of you who like hokey old Hollywood short films to find a little time this evening and watch this Christmas classic, Star in the Night, a wonderful Warner Brothers one-hankie starring J. Carrol Naish (whosa oncagaina playina de Italiano misanadeetrope). It's a treasure from simpler simpler times. Don't let the Fowler fool you - I am half Italian. This is the great night of the Seven Fishes feast, of baccala, (mangia bene!) and Midnight Mass. You enjoy the day (there will still be plenty to read on NRO) and have a very Merry Christmas. To those of you who do not celebrate the day, I pray that love and joy come to you, and to you your wassail too. Jack Fowler Publisher PS: That last minute gift: a cabin on the National Review 2015 Alaska Summer Cruise! Get it here.

Breaking: Left-Wing Black History Children’s Book Distributed by Simon & Schuster Is Heavily Plagiarized
A left-wing writer and racial-justice activist who has claimed that American society was "instituted by racist ideas and maintained by racist policies" published a black history book for kids earlier this year that appears to be filled with content plagiarized from other sources, according to a review of the book by National Review . Confronted with the apparent plagiarism, the book’s publisher said it would be pulled from circulation pending an investigation. Rann Miller, a New Jersey-based activist and educator, published Resistance Stories from Black History for Kids in March. According to the book, it is designed to be a "place of entry" into the history of the African people so readers will be "empowered to fight" injustices in the world. Miller, a former teacher who has both a bachelor’s and a master’s degree from Rutgers University, also writes opinion pieces for the Philadelphia Inquirer , the Progressive Magazine, and education websites
