Not much information exists yet on National Native Plant Month because it is a brand new designation.
The first Senate resolution was in 2021 to make April National Native Plant Month and recognize “the benefits of native plants to the environment and economy of the United States.”
This year, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) has once again agreed to be the lead sponsor of the Senate resolution with Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) once again the bipartisan cosponsor.

Albert Einstein wrote on May 23, 1946 that “The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking...”
One can say the same of the torching of Temple Beth Israel, three months ago, on January 10, 2026.
Memories are short. People’s minds move to other stories in the course of 24 hour news cycles at their peril.

Saturday’s March 28 ceremony dedicating the running track and field at Charleston High School to a former longtime local coach, Craig Walker, was very fitting and richly deserved.
For many years, Walker was the physical education teacher and track and football coach at Charleston Middle School, but he may be most widely known as the founder, fundraiser, driver and coach of a summer youth track and field program that captured the attention of people far from Tallahatchie County and Mississippi.

What does the holy-warrior culture Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is cultivating in our military have in common with the holy-militant culture Imperial Wizard Sam Bowers cultivated in his White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan?
I fell into this question after reading Hegseth’s latest militant prayer and then about the trove of Klan artifacts uncovered at the Mississippi Department of Public Safety as it prepared to relocate. Among the items recovered were a Klan charter and a March 1, 1964, Bowers lecture. (See all items at Jackson Jambalaya.)
