Jimmy Carter: A Lamb When America Needed a Lion

Jan 17, 2025 | thetriangle.org | Thomas Russell

History tends to soften the blow upon former presidents after they have left office. As time goes on, it is easier to judge the overall efficacy and outcome of a president’s term as we witness the long-term effects of their policies bear fruit.

Why Kamala Harris Lost the 2024 Election

Nov 15, 2024 | thetriangle.org | Thomas Russell

On Oct. 4, The Triangle published my article “Kamala Harris might not win.” There, I outlined the events that made her the 2024 Democratic nominee for president, her time as attorney-general and senator of California, her 2020 presidential race and the obstacles that stood in her path to win The White House in 2024. Now that we know Harris will not be the 47th president, what happened between early October and Nov. 5? One event that stood out to me the most was Harris’ appearance on The View.
An open letter to the industry

Oct 18, 2024 | homenewsnow.com | Thomas Russell

My name is Ray Allegrezza, and I have had the pleasure of reporting on this industry for more than 30 years. In that time, I’ve determined that the home furnishings sector is populated by some of the most caring, generous people I’ve met anywhere. With that in mind, I want to throw an idea on the table.

Black Girl Tragic:

Aug 17, 2024 | thruss09.medium.com | Thomas Russell

I wish more Black girls would participate in any of my technology classes. They avoided my class and would run away from it if they were unfortunate enough to have been placed there by their counselor. Only two Black girls out of the 57 total were in two of my Introduction to Computer Science classes this year. After just the first class, they dropped the course for another elective class.
Why is tipping such a sensitive topic?
