The whole “Hollywood” Henderson comment also reminds the reader that it has been 30+ years since Bradshaw was a Relevant and Successful Football Man. It’s the football equivalent of “was a great model, I remember seeing her in my mom’s catalogs.”

I read the book earlier this fall and it’s very much worth reading. It’s one read that it takes getting through the first 100 pages and the background information before you become hooked.

Yes, what you are saying is so true. White America has this image that racists are caricatures, over the top evil from central casting. Reading this interview reminds us that the truth is so much more complex—these things were done (or tolerated) by everyday white people—including reporters from the New Yorker or the…

I’m finding myself on the side of caring more about good governance over idealogy these days.

Conservatives would like most parts of Sharia law. Replace “Allah” with “God/Jesus” and most of them couldn’t tell the difference.
