Omg & My parents’ dear friends’ son, seminarian Jonathon Daniel’s, also was taken down during those days, for wanting a little girl who was hot, to get something to drink.

We have certainly returned to the worst of us. I don’t know us anymore🥲😡

Oh yeah, that little girl was black.

"To tame the savageness of man and make gentle the life of the world"... Easier said than done, but a moral imperative nevertheless...for each of us as individuals and as a society.

That's the original RFK, quoting Aeschylus

Well said Jack. If Detroiters don't know it, nobody does. Johnson would have been one of our greatest presidents if he hadn't sent so many to their death due to the draft in Viet Nam. The primary issue in this country, the cause of the divisiveness that Trump has exploited is racism, and the only place that issue can be resolved is in the minds and hearts of its citizens. While the reactionary media has now taught it needs to be denied, the focus can't be lost or the future will remain in peril, and fascism will continue to spread.
