How about Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks? Washington and Lee can be renamed Tubman and Parks University.

Let’s do this.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus

Do you want to go do karate in the garage? I don't get the vinegar bbq thing. Never have. Oh man. What's not to love? A little tang, a little sweat on your brow. A hint of sweetness that gets absorbed by the meat, not that overly cloying sugary sauce that just sits on top. It lets the meat do most ...

im not gonna blame the DNC for getting DJ Trump elected (because i don't like the logic), but i'm also not going to vote for a candidate because it serves someone else's self-interests.

Re: Race in America - Riots Explode in Minneapolis

i listened to the weinstein podcast. very impressive group. could probably get the bulk in the first 32min. i largely agree with the points made; it reflects what i was saying recently. race is a synthetic construct. all are human, were once all from one continent, and are simply all related to some...

my opinion but lewis lost credibility when he went on tv hawking IEX and his flash boys books, pretending to be an objective sideline player, and it turned out he had a pecuniary interest in the exchange, which was conveniently omitted. in the name of revenues.

Re: All things CoronaVirus

is what leads me to fear the potential rise of a murderous Nazi-like regime in the United States. If Trump and his supporters can shrug off 140,000+ Covid-19 deaths as just the cost of business, then what’s to stop them from shrugging off the deaths of millions? Remember, Germany gave the world som...

i think that's question that no one is answering, or can even really answer. we had this exact discussion a few years ago on LP. if i'm told going to a public HS is socialism, even though i pay taxes for that district, then it follows that if i live in a blue state that some claim "fund" r...

I have doubts about your answer.
I know I don't find people equal. I have run into a few that are exemplary, and others who don't measure up - and most are somewhere in between.
