Wow, Cookie! Every time I look away from your blog you have taken it to a new height. What a prophetic voice. Who knew!
Thank you for this blog. It says everything I wanted to say in ways I hadn’t even thought about. The parallel to Billie Holiday singing “Strange Fruit” is awesome.
I don’t think this stuff will ever stop. There are more African Americans being lynched today than in the 1920′ and 1930’s and none of us knows how to stop it. The majority society has given this their blessing, it seems. Their day is coming and it isn’t going to be pleasant.
Keep writing. I will keep reading.
