One of four sections of the book was in Lancaster, CA (known by some of the teenagers who lived there as "Klancaster&quot .

Anyway, skinheads getting a pass from the local cops for the usual shit - beating up immigrants and minorities, the usual barrel of chuckles, provided they were white, of course.

.at Madison Square .Gardens..keep wondering where their evil spawn slithered to..government, politics, law enforcement? Systemic racism is embedded in the fabric of America--thought we were @30% of population of racists with their numbers only diminishing so I thought--perhaps our eyes was on the future and not aware of their rise in our systems.

Was stunned, shocked on Nov 2, 2016 that our racist past had come full force--shocked the my neighbors, colleagues, friends, family voted against the progress we made; that those who voted for Obama 2terms voted against an America that included all of us--damn. Now we see kkknazi, white supremacists blatantly exhibit thier hate towsrds nonwhite nonchristians-- unfortunately they are embedded in law enforsement--where they are killing Black and Hispanics in broad daylight without a judge, jury--they!re executioners. Racist guy in WH nonstop mantra of law and order..is racially coded--have the knee on our necks literalkt and figuritlvely--a message that you'd better comply or else! I'm exhausted with daily physical and verbal, assault on our black and brown bodies.

I was especsiily depressed this werkend when I read of sundown laws that still exists in states across the country; even blue states--que ? What? In 2020-- Dios ayudonos, god help us. Great post--we need to be vigilant for our children, grandchildren! Thanks--will archive for future.

The Ku Klux Klan was at the height of its popularity when more than 30,000 members — racists and anti-Semites marching 22 abreast and 14 rows deep — paraded down Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington on Aug. 8, 1925.
