Related: About this forumReformed Redneck Racist on a Mission
It hit me hard this morning after reading varrying accounts re: Flint and the Republicans and more Trump crap, that the wedge is going to set us back 50 years if we don't get more active on the issue/phenomenon of White Supremacists in our law enforcement today. (i.e. Texas prisons banning Shakespeare, but allowing access to "Mein Kampf" and David Duke's book)
Here is the story of one man's effort: http://www.dailydot.com/irl/reformed-redneck-dixon-white-racism/
He has a Facebook page Dixon D White - Facebook
He has been putting out youtube videos making the case to White Supremacists beginning with this one.
It seems to me no matter if Michael Moore is correct, or Hillary wins, that we need more people like Dixon. And we must confront the idea of white supremacy. Our country is doomed if we don't. And I wish that DU could be a place to help the effort.

I might've even crossed a street to avoid him without getting to know him.
