Just knock of the shucking and jiving, and tell me what your beef is.

I guess my problem is that, when I was a kid in school in the ‘60s, my school was very much integrated. Some folks here seem to believe that blacks and whites lived in a vacuum...totally separated from each other.

We didn’t.

I’m not shucking or jiving in any way, shape or form.

I’m telling you that things weren’t as portrayed in the media. And, I’m telling you that you don’t know what you’re talking about.

But, you couldn’t, unless you lived it...so I understand.

It has nothing to do with being a Democrat, or not.

It has to do with a federal government, which happened to be dem at the time, that would force one to do something that they didn’t want to do.

I’m speaking of my black friends who didn’t want what the feds forced on them.

Most don’t even know that is what was happening at the time.
