One thing thatās clear as Sen. Jeff Sessionsā confirmation hearing drones on is that the nominee for U.S. attorney general dilikes being called a racist.
āI did not harbor the kind of animosities and race-based discrimination ideas that I was accused of,ā Sessions told the congressional hearing committee Tuesday, citing his failed 1986 bid to become a federal judge, which was mired in accusations of racism. āThis caricature of me in 1986 was not correct.ā
Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), speaking in support of Sessions at Tuesdayās hearing, also decried past attempts to paint the Alabama senator as a āracist caricature.ā
The use of the term ācaricatureā is funny here. It suggests that Sessionsā alleged history of racism ā the details of which are neither particularly outlandish nor uncommon ā could only describe some cartoon-like monster, not a normal human being living and working in Alabama.
But viewing racism as only the purview of rotten souls is to misunderstand it. Racism is, like humans themslves, complex. Racists arenāt monsters. They can have black friends yet still support racist policies targeting black people. They can vote for black politicians, yet still view black people on the street with suspicion.

Found my History
I know this is off-topic from my usual posts, but it meant so much to me and my family that I just had to share it with all of you.
My family had always known my Great x4 Grandfather had been called John Penn, but we finally got around to hiring a professional to look into it and they found proof of his REAL name. Although his "masters" had called him John, his fellow freedmen had called him by his true name. Sabe was born as a slave in Virginia, live his life as "John Penn," died a free man, and can now be remembered by his true name. Sabe will never be forgotten, and my decedents will all know his true name thanks to the work that ALG Genealogists, LLC put in to help me family.

Thatās actually genius.
The wolves have circled around me, teeth bared and muzzles dirty with the blood of another, but I am not the girl I was, cloak abandoned, the only red the bloodshot around my bright, bright eyes. I stand tall and I show my teeth and, finally, I growl back.

Because for me, itās always been about you.ā āPresident Obama. Get the details on his Farewell Address at wh.gov/Farewell.
