Could we not say of today’s White America that we still know what the people are? Hasn’t the inner compass that should direct the soul toward justice ossified in today’s angry white men and women, North and South, unto utter uselessness through tolerating the evil of racism. Is it not simply that many White people cannot bear the thought of sharing this country’s infinite abundance and power with Minorities?
Isn’t this why we are where we are?
