This was a very interesting read (it's long, but I found it fairly insightful), picked out of all the hateful excrement that is rants & raves. I don't post here, but I do read it. Am I the only one? It shows me that racism is alive and well in BR. NOLA has a little of this in theirs, but BR is terrible right now. It did pick up A LOT since Alton, but it's always been going on.

Anyone who teaches blacks soon learns that they have a completely different view of government from whites. Once I decided to fill 25 minutes by having students write about one thing the government should do to improve America. I gave this question to three classes totaling about 100 students, approximately 80 of whom were black. My few white students came back with generally "conservative" ideas. "We need to cut off people who don't work," was the most common suggestion. Nearly every black gave a variation on the theme of "We need more government services."
