“I appreciate David’s mom and swmbo for trying to explain Lowery’s mindset and the fact that he is most likely still living in the past. And while I respect and admire this man for enduring the injustices he faced and I celebrate his fight to change our prejudiced society, I’m still offended by Lowery’s comment and believe it was totally out of place.”
Why do I have a feeling that an elderly white person of another generation that is ‘living in the past’ wouldn’t have such forgiveness offered to them from the black community?
an attempt at a joke by trent lott comes to mind.
