"I don’t have to look in the rearview mirror to see racism, and neither do you."

"I don’t have to look in the rearview mirror to see racism, and neither do you."
— Susan Ladd
Great writers can say a lot in a few words. Such is the case with this outstanding piece by Susan Ladd in which she demonstrates the moral and intellectual superiority attainable when talking about racism in Greensboro when one rises above generalities, pettiness and tired old rhetoric. It's one of the best things I've read at the News & Record in a long time. Read it.
