Brainerd High Principal Charles Joynes offered a stern wake-up call to a group of self-described "white guys" Thursday night when he spoke to the Chattanooga Tea Party.
"What if you had been born to a single mother in the Harriet Tubman projects?" he asked. "If it were not for the grace of God, that could be you."
After his speech in the Century Club Banquet Hall on Harrison Pike, the whole room gave the inner-city principal a standing ovation, and some men put wads of cash in Joynes' hands afterward. They told him to use it for the students at Brainerd, for the ones who didn't have a cap and gown to graduate, for the ones who can't afford the field trips or the sports equipment.
"I'm just a white guy," said Tony Rubik, a Bakewell resident. "I don't know a lot about the black community. But I'm going to find out now what I can do."

Do you think that ZImmerman has already left the country?
His lawyers said they are dropping him because they can't get in contact with him, then this morning they said he is in hiding for his own safety. Has he already made a run for the border?
Boyce Watkins is beginning to think so - http://www.kulturekritic.com/2012/04/uncategorized/trayvons-parents-think-zimmerman-is-a-flight-risk-i-think-hes-already-running/
