Saw that. It reminded me of living in Austin in the late 50's to early 60's. Racism was just an accepted way of life for many of my friends at the time. Ironically, the first "racist" incident I experienced was selling cokes at the UT stadium. My brother and I were po white trash military kids trying to make a buck(literally) selling cokes at the UT games. All the other sellers were black. I turned around to get lids for my rack of cups and a black stole my tray of cokes. It was pretty dismal being 11 years old surrounded by 20 black men while they laughed at me. Racism just sucks. I hate the injustice of racism. Neither side wins in the end.
