Ditto @Hawaii Jake The good ‘ol boys, as we would refer to them today, couldn’t handle people of color getting ahead in life. Pretty simple I think. Despite all the horse shit we spewed during WW II about the Four Freedoms, Freedom From Fear being one of them I believe. Too bad we don’t apply that to our own citizens. And it still goes on today as evidenced by all of the murders of people of color by police, that have been occuring. So our generation is not one whit better than our ancestors of 100 years ago. Long since time to shIt or get off the pot, America. If we can’t practice what we preach we should shut the hell up about freedom, and stop trying to police the world.
We have now made it past Joe Biden’s first 100 days in office, the traditional point at which political journalists pass sage judgment on the early results of a new presidency (or at least tap out a few saved-up think pieces in need of a hook). The country owes this practice to Franklin Roosevelt, who in July of 1933 sat down for one of his early fireside chats and told radio listeners that he wanted to reflect on “the hundred days which had been devoted to the starting of the wheels of the New Deal.” Reporters have been using it as a benchmark for taking stock ever since.
