Yeah, well, I remember as a kid protesting in beautiful Forsyth County, JAW-JUH after Hosea Williams and about a dozen other people got rocks thrown at them by the redneck KLANSMEN living there. Their crime? The fact they were protesting a well-known FACT that the Forsyth rednecks were keeping BLACKS from moving into the county through intimidation and cross burning (yeah, 1986. Sad). Oh yeah, the resident attitudes may have had something to do with the fact that Forsyth was where the last documented lynching in the US took place...

200,000 people showed up to march through the county about two weeks later and it was a PERFECTLY PEACEFUL PROTEST expect for the redneck KLANSMEN who were there to be total and complete azzwipes.

LOL...we had to watch DO THE RIGHT THING in Graduate school in an Urban Problems class....neat scene where the kids come up on some yuppies moving into the neighborhood....and then the scene where they burn the WHITE Italian resturant.

I asked my professor, "HMM...I wonder what you would be saying if the people moving in were black and the WHITE thugs had treated them like that...or the resturant was a black chicken place?"

LOL....he stopped showing that movie.

im one of those "stupid, silly (or whatever insulting adjective stove is using today) libbies, and i thought the message of "do the right thing" was deplorable, along with that college movie by john singleton (school daze, i believe it was)
