DRESS FOR SUCCESS-OSCAR RIP


I received an email this morning reminding me about my recent election to the executive board of a community based organization.The president of the board was correctly reminding us to dress for success for the installation was being held tonight and that pictures would be taken. The next email I read was from a friend asking if I had heard about the transit officer on the west coast being charged with the shooting death of Oscar Grant. I just had to think that dressing for success certainly did not protect Oscar !
