The racism is unbearable [View all]

Taking Jackie Robinson off of the DOD site along with the Native American coders is just too much for minorities to take. We are approaching a new Jim Crow. Every day it gets worse. The form is different but the objective is the same. Women have also had their distinguished history taken away.
It can be argued that breaking the color barrier was as important as MLK. It was the crack that started us to TRY to make the country live up to its constitution.
Ask a conservative to name a time that they ever helped minorities stop discrimination in any legislation. They are the people who supported segregation.
I have one wish and that is Trump and Musk get cancer and they start to understand cancer research and medical research and that is the hope of every cancer patient to extend their lives.
