A Game Texas (and the Republican Party) Wants America to Forget

Americans have a type of amnesia. It’s called white washing. We do our best to forget unpleasant historic facts. And in this Texas leads the country.

Read this recent obituary of an early African-American college player, C. R. Roberts from U.S.C., whose team went to Texas, yes the famous University of Texas, for a game…… that Texas want America to forget.

Medicynical Note: This didn’t happen in 1619. It happened in my lifetime. It’s the way we were.

The Civil Rights movement changed America for the better but it didn’t erase history or remove the profound effects of hundreds of years of racism. Like it or not it’s our history.
