And New Deal Dems? Only one I can think of is maybe Henry Wallace. It took border southerners to make effective changes re racists (Harry Truman desegregating the military and LBJ* with the Voting Rights Act etc).
I don’t say this to excuse the GOP or any of its craven office holders who may not be racist but play one on tv. Just that racism is a white and largely nonpartisan disease.
*I know, but it terms of politics, it was considered a border state before 1980 or so.

I met Ty about 10 years ago. He was an earnest person. But lately he has become confused and confusing. I know he went through job changes. Do you think it possible he sold the sock to a Russian bot?
