But of course. :^)

Obviously I'm out of the loop and have no idea what a "B" is. I'm fine with being out of the loop on that.

My grandfather co-authored the brief to the US Supreme Court in Brown v Board of Education but, with the occasional exception, I don't make a big thing of it, just like I don't make a big thing of the fact that he was black.

He identified with a certain segment of the population because of qualities he shared with them, but it was his character that made him the man he was - not the color of his skin.

I think he, Thurmond, and MLK would be saying the same thing Jesse Jackson, in a candid moment, said of Obambi.

It sounds like your grandfather was a great man and way ahead of his time. We (mrs. panax and I) have half-black nieces and nephews and love them dearly. I would smack anyone down that disrespected them in any way.

BTW, “B” means b!tch in street lingo. Fatima has apologized for using said reference.

Again, I thank you.
