Normal, SJL...

This has been going on ever since the end of Reconstruction in 1876... It's called the Jim Crow era and, unfortunately, it isn't over... Not only that but with the rise of the Tea Klux Klan it is on the rise...

The Southern Poverty Law Center tracks white supremacists groups and reports an increase of 800% of them since Obama was elected in 2008... That's a lot of very pissed off white people...

The murder of Trayvon Martin may be a symbol but his killing is just the tip of the iceberg...

Here's my wish... I wish that every white person had to live as an African-American for just one month... That's all it would take and we'd move past all this...
