Eh, talking about race is a thought-terminating cliché. I think Conservatives should articulate a constructive vision towards transcending this and putting themselves above race issues, emphasize a message of “no more hyphenated-Americans, we’re all Americans” or some such.
I read Flaherty’s book: White Girl Bleed a Lot: the return of racial violence and how the media ignore it.
Takeaway: There is an enormous amount of racial violence all over the country that the press ignores.
You can find the book at Http://WhitegirlBleedaLot.com or at WND.com
I hope Flaherty gets the Pulitzer. He deserves it.
In the meantime, if you read this book you will be astonished at what is happening in your town and that your paper will not report.
