Things have not changed

I just read the article by Mary Mitchell in the July 15, 2008 Chicago Sun-Times. it talks about how 7 students who integrated Mount Greenwood Elementary School 40 yrs ago returned to take a picture. The were greeted by a mob of at least 5000 and a swastika on one of the school doors. One of the ladies was too frightened to get out of her car. It is so disturbing to know that 40 yrs later Chicago is still as racist as it was 40 yrs ago. I read this quote from Ken Kunz " That was Chicago in the 60's--a racist, backward place with someone named Daley as mayor. Today, however, Chicago is a ...uh...it's a racist, backward place with someone named Daley as mayor!"

Amen! Where do I send my offering?
