Exclusive: Sharpton Records Twice Destroyed in Fires By Jillian Kay Melchior As Al Sharpton ran for mayor of New York City in 1997 and for president in 2003, fires at his offices reportedly destroyed critical financial records, and he subsequently failed to comply with tax and campaign filing requirements. The first fire began in the early hours of April 10, 1997, in a hair-and-nail salon one floor below Sharpton's campaign headquarters at 70 West 125th Street. From the start, investigators deemed the fire "suspicious" because of "a heavy volume of fire on arrival" and because many of the doors remained unlocked after hours, according to the New York Fire Department's fire-and-incident report. As the fire crept upward into Sharpton's headquarters, it destroyed nearly everything, including computers, files, and campaign records, the Reverend's spokesperson at the time told Newsday, adding that "we have lost our entire Manhattan operation." But a source knowledgeable about the investigation tells National Review Online that Sharpton's office was mostly empty, and that the damage was not extensive.

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
