That said, I danced a jig when I heard what Thomas wrote. He is the only one on the court to fully understand the meaning and importance of the amendment.

I know it is near impossible for the enlightened intellectual to comprehend but a lot of people never made it to considering color. Being a lawyer with no record of accomplishment was enough for me to reach for the “anybody else” button.

I was in the first desegregated class in my school system. We did not have a problem because all the troublemakers concentrated on the Southeast part of the country. Today, my hometown police chief is the son of a black lady who was in my class. He is as competent, capable and professional as any to occupy the position.

And you joke about it?
