Happy Wednesday!! 😀 Tomorrow is PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE DAY! Pledge of Allegiance Day on December 28th commemorates the date Congress adopted the "The Pledge" into the United States Flag Code. #PledgeOfAllegianceDay Congress formally gave recognition for the Pledge of Allegiance on December 28, 1945. Francis Bellamy receives credit for writing the Pledge of Allegiance. The Youth's Companion, a magazine for young people, first published it anonymously on September 8, 1892, under the title "The Pledge." It was written in celebration of the 400th anniversary of the discovery of America. In 1923 and 1924, the National Flag Conference inserted text of the pledge into legislation. Though modifications were made, the pledge remained nearly the same. At the same time, the conference didn't designate it as the official pledge. In its original form, it read: “I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” The small changes resulted in this version: “I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” On Flag Day in 1954, Congress added the words “under God” in response to the anti-Communist opinion sweeping the country during the Cold War. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE DAY HISTORY: Over the years, various attempts to create a national day honoring the Pledge of Allegiance have reached Congress. Others have failed. Around the country, Pledge Days, large and small, focused on the history of the pledge, the flag, and the Nation as a whole. We recount some of those efforts below. Interestingly, none of the exercises in patriotism point to a holiday taking place on December 28th. HOW TO OBSERVE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE DAY: 🔹Learn more about the Pledge of Allegiance, its history and what it means. 🔹Recite the pledge. 🔹Use #PledgeOfAllegianceDay to post on social media. #signsbytomorrowhuntsville #signs #signage #banners #featherflags #walldecals #outdoorsigns #safetysigns #acrylicsigns #businessowners #vehiclewraps #huntsvillealabama #madisonalabama

Good morning Chicago State University, This another day to do the right thing about Mr Bola Tinubu, you can’t jeopardize 200 millions lives because of your selfish interest. My questions and surprises are; how can one enrolled into your school as a Female, then graduate as a Male?, how can you gave out two different certificates for one course?. The Bola Tinubu that enrolled into your academic was a Female, wait, is that you people accept cash for grade or you sell someoyhaed earned certificates for highest bidder?. How much does Mr Bola Tinubu paid you guys that makes you think 200 millions Nigerian lives worth nothing, or is this how you run your #State, destroying another country to maintain yours?. I think if a child does well in his courses and the result comes out good; both student and school should be proud by making it known to boost their school against other school. #CSU, don’t compromise your standard because of one man, the world is watching. #AllEyesOnChicagoStateUniversity #AllEyesonTheJudiciary
