This is disgusting! The only reason to bring up controversal history is to stir the racism of this country which is being fueled by the POTUS! How much are you getting paid to do this?
Given the flaming racism of the president and his cohorts and that of many of his working class white followers this article serves only to created more divisiveness and fictitious beliefs about people of color. This is especially significant given the assaults on immigrants and the attack on freedom of speech.
So blaming people today for slavery is ok but pointing out Al's graft is off limits, graft for which he has never atoned? I think Al and Trump are friends?
The criticism is why you would bring this up today, years after the event. when nothing is occuring to cause it to be brought up again. The only reason to do this is to aggravate racism and divisiveness. And if you don't understand racism, as I suspect you dont, then I strongly suggest you do some serious reading by real scholars and people of color who are the experts. Otherwise, I can only hold you responsible for hostile, hate based efforts.
I reserve the right to bring up any subject at any time for any reason or no reason at all. Timing is not evidence of bad intentions. I just thought about what a creep Al was and is, and felt like writing about him. He's always fair game. I write about the Clintons murdering Vince Foster and Ron Brown, and that was many years ago. For the record, 'people of color' don't have a monopoly on suffering or the subject of racism. You sound like the South African president who denies the very possibility of White hate...

You do selectively miss the point!
