The Churchill version is more fun. “Ma’am you are ugly” “Sir you are drunk” “But in the morning I will be sober” Atheists might enjoy putting a space 6 letters into Churchill, creating church ill ~ There is a post about the carving on Stone Mountain. This is one of the proposals. “2. Stop mowing the lawn Allow the Memorial Lawn to grow into a forest. It is not protected by the law. A major problem with Stone Mountain is the formal, triumphant view of the sculpture, making the entire park a celebration of white supremacy.” The carving is 400 feet above the lawn. ~ Daryl Davis is a bullshitter. He talks fast, and says a lot between pauses. Eventually, he says things that can be researched, and shown to be lies. He said that Warren Harding was sworn into the KKK in the green room of the White House. I have written about Mr. Harding at my blog. One thing about him… he was a progressive about race in 1920, when it was not popular. Mr. Harding sponsored anti-lynching legislation in the Senate. He took other stands in favor of civil rights for Black people. I looked up the claim about the KKK, and saw an article debunking it. ~ A member of a NYC Community Education Council to a colleague: “It hurts people when they see a white man bouncing a brown baby on their lap.” “I would like to know how having my friend’s nephew on my lap was racist.” “Read a book. Read White Fragility.” ~ “have you ever actually read Robin D’Angelo’s book white fragility” … “you got to be kidding that’s torture I have only read reviews of it” … “I’ve actually had to read it that is one of the worst books ever written” ~ @JohnHMcWhorter @GlennLoury you mention substituting witch for racist… here is something I wrote where I substituted racist for the magic word, quoting a speech by James Baldwin… It is amazing how it worked ~ People who argue about what word to put in front of “lives matter” have no equivalent. ~ @stillgray The mass shooting in Atlanta happened at a bloc party. They were doing donuts and one of the cars hit another. That’s when it kicked off. Wasn’t a protest. ~ pictures for this livin’ is easy post are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah
