Read Africans: The History of a Continent cover to cover on my dad's porch the summer after college. 87. That book changed how I thought about the whole continent, not just one country.

i keep thinking about this and i don't really have it sorted out yet. 15. that's the number that won't sit right with me, i coach youth track on weekends here in illinois and every time one of my kids lines up in the blocks i think about the 100 and 200 this kid ran at page high, running back too, small for the position they said, fearless anyway. i didn't know him, never met him, just read the reports like everyone else. but there's something about a stadium full of people who watched a kid get hurt on a thursday and then three days later he's gone. i don't know what to say really. edit: saw the vigil is the 17th at the stadium, hope it helps them some kind of way

A seven-time champion and FIDE official. That's a life spent building something bigger than yourself. The chess world lost one of its steady hands.

Watched him play for Liverpool as a kid. The intensity, the hunger. Not the biggest guy on the pitch but you always knew where the ball was going.

Came up from nothing and built something that lasted. That matters.

The Leopard. That's all I need to say.

That race really did grow into something huge under him, I remember the crowds getting bigger every year.

To Gregory Ferguson’s tribute on Jim O'Connor’s page · 27d ago

Agreed, quiet but solid career.

To Tammy Carpenter’s tribute on Javad Mojabi’s page · 5 Sept 2026

He spent decades documenting what others wanted erased. That matters.
