I find it suprising that right wingers cant just come out and condemn the things that were going on in those days. Watching the film of that era it looks so ugly. Those people were evil.
Oh they're still around Tom , we've our share of xenophopic extreemists ,and for the most part allow them to parade around lamenting whatever nationality or race they'd like.
That said, juxtaoped to the rest of the world >>>40 million slaves in the world, finds new report - CNN , we've made sisyphean efforts to address it all, along with those iconic sorts who led us to do so.
We really had no choice, as we're a 'melting pot' sort of country and culture , and yes one can say the gub'mit institutionalized it all, but it beats the alternative
