     Extractions: Amount: $5,000 A NEW YORK CITY DIAMOND MERCHANT IS APPROACHED by the distraught mother of a child in his Sunday school class. The boy, not yet out of sixth grade, is already being pressured to join the local gangs, and his mother wants help getting her son out of their Washington Heights neighborhood. The merchant, reluctant at first, agrees and finds a place for the boy at a Christian boarding school in Mississippi. In the process, he becomes one of the pioneers of the privately funded school choice movement, and now has more than 100 children on his waiting list. But where many of the modern school choice programs have the benefit of strong corporate or foundation support, Luis Iza's program, Operation Exodus Inner City, Inc., is run out of a corner of his Manhattan business office on a budget of less than $100,000 per year. That budget, moreover, is raised almost entirely from local churches and parents of the program's students, who are so committed to getting their kids out of the local schools that they part with a sizable portion of their meager incomes. This year they are getting some help from a $5,000 grant from the New Jersey-based Hyde and Watson Foundation, which will enable the program to establish a computer lab. Since its inception in 1988, Operation Exodus has assisted over 130 kids, most of them from Dominican families, by placing them outside their neighborhoods of Washington Heights and the South Bronx in over thirty different schools both around New York City and the nation. While the other students in their neighborhoods see only 30 percent of their peers graduate from high school in four years, students in the Exodus program do so at the astonishing rate of 98 percent, according to Iza. In fact, only two students have ever dropped out of school after enrolling in the program. All of the program's high school graduates have entered college, where 70 percent have graduated or are still enrolled.

     Extractions: Aleck "Rice" Miller, a.k.a. "Sonny Boy Williamson" Delta School According to his gravestone, Rice Miller was born March 11, 1897, in the country between Glendora and Tutwiler, Mississippi. He was raised by his mother Millie Ford and stepfather Jim Miller, and acquired the nickname "Rice" as a young child. Miller, who was interested in music as a toddler, taught himself to play harmonica at the age of five. Interestingly, W.C. Handy heard early blues played on a train platform in Tutwiler about this same time. Miller became quite adept at the harmonica, playing spiritual music at parties for tips as a child. As he grew older, he began playing spirituals at schools and street corners as "Little Boy Blue." During the 1920s he left his parents' home and began to hobo, playing blues to support himself. Miller hoboed through Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Missouri during the 1920s, playing levee and lumber camps, juke joints, and parties. He claimed to have made unissued test recordings in the late 1920s, but these have never been found. During the 1930s Miller teamed up with guitarists
