Thurgood would be proud of this.

If Thurgood would be proud, heaven must have sent you to say that. Appreciate you.

Not sure how you dissected it all, then took a deep dive in a concise manner. I like to be challenged like this to push my brain into critical thinking. Thank you for that. Do you have books or other published pieces?

If anything, this post should get you MORE subscribers. I apologize for not subscribing, but have reached my limit & really cant afford any more. BUT I read your posts.

I remember much of the news parts - but these articles from Jet and your comments are more than that.

Thank you

Just became a new subscriber. Phenomenal writing, teaching, discussion. Thank you. It's so needed. I was 5 years old in 1967 in a rural west side of then tiny Pearland, Texas, out among rice fields. But my parents had a black and white tv, I knew about President Johnson, civil rights, the importance of public school, hard work, what was right and wrong, how to act and how not to act, and the foundational importance of Bible study and church. We were working class and proud of it and our country. Nixon disgraced US and that corrupt ball kept rolling to what exists today. Thank you for discussing, showing about Thurgood Marshall. A giant then and now and always. Clarence Thomas was a disgraceful bad egg prior to his confirmation hearing. I was proud of Anita Hill. She was courageous speaking truth to power even though they did not listen. But the people heard her and remember. Now we must stand and do the hard stuff for our needy citizens at this juncture. Thank you for your writing, discussions, postings here. I've just begun reading, but I can tell you are dynamite!!! Many thanks.
