Sure Glad We're in Post-Racial America

Sure Glad We're in Post-Racial America

I was looking to see what other signs there were that Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) was less intelligent than my cat, and I found this depressing reminder that racism is alive and well, from the March 30, 2010 Fox Channel 5 in Atlanta:
ATLANTA - The defense called former DeKalb County officials to the stand Tuesday in an effort to disprove claims of racial discrimination by Vernon Jones.

The former CEO -- along with other county officials -- are charged with trying to replace white managers with black managers during his tenure.

...

Plaintiffs in the 2004 lawsuit accuse Jones of ordering a top subordinate to "dig up dirt" on top white managers because he wanted a "darker administration" to reflect the county's racial makeup.
The federal appeals court has refused to dismiss this suit.
