Sure it devastated them. But it was an organic response, not like this mess. And it did probably set off whites into the wokeness of today. And I did say IN THE LONG RUN it was a bigger deal. We will see just what the lasting impact of Floyd's death is. I think Biden is befuddled by time perspective.

No. The managent, mostly being more polluted and weakened by tge educational system, are gripped with the Virtue virus. All we can do is write to them at every opportunit and tell them to knock off the shame game. And, I talk to the low level people in the stores, carefully, most know it is BS but they have to go along.

Maybe they are afraid someone will dig up the old cartoons of the 1930s with the the happy darkies (download them now if you can find them).

Obvious bigotry! Nazis to the end. /s I had a hard time with that article, but it looks like the woke ones were the ones who resigned. If I read that right, it's a step in the right direction.

If you go by what happened at the very time, as I recall there wasn't nearly as much outrage over King and it wasn't international. Over time since death, that's a different story.

This perpetuates the "peaceful protestors" (Barr said over a hundred officers were injured), being disbursed with tear gas (denied by park police) on Trump's order (also denied). Where are the usual videos?

It used to be the other way. This is the real switch that the Dems talk about. And if someone looked at old maps without knowing, they might believe it.

They are literally redefining racism. That's the point lost in all the yelling and confusion. The new definition will then legitimately apply to the past, because that's how it goes, the new replaces the old. It will give the grievance industry an advantage.

This should be a PSA of ad length. Even though it doesn't directly hit the election. Every thing the Dems have done that had a bad effect on blacks should be mentioned the same way.

Well, sure. If it isn't around to remind people they will forget, every miscreant hopes for that. I just don't see Song of the South as racist, or the black hippopotami in Fantasia, or Amos & Andy, or any of the rather large censored body of art.

And her character was one of the most sensible and useful people in the whole story.

Yet Amos and Andy was all the usual comedy setups, just with black actors.

It's about an early feminist fighting the patriarchy, hard to understand the criticism.

Put it on eBay and see what happens--pick a fat reserve if you do.

I did learn in my book search that Selznick was trying to leave out the KKK and other controversial aspects.
