Yeah, Mr. Smiley. Made it through the entire Trump presidency without being enslaved. Imagine that.

On Condi Rice 2

George Curry has seconded my position on Condi Rice and provided missing links in my theory:

“My father was not a march-in-the-street preacher,” Rice told an interviewer for the Washington Post. The decision to use children in protest demonstrations is one of the main reasons the walls of segregation came tumbling down in my home state. But Rev. Rice would have no part of it.

“He saw no reason to put children at risk,” she told the Washington Post. “He would never put his own children at risk.”

And that’s the point. Many Black middle-class families refused to confront America’s version of apartheid, yet when the doors of opportunity flung open, they were the first to march through them, riding on the back of poor people who were unafraid to take risks.


It would seem that I nailed Dr. Rice and her Civil Rights pimping family squarely on the head.
