Yay for the Declaration of Independence. It was and is something to aspire to and build on. See @JusticeDeferred #racialjustice @VernonBurton1

Honored to have Armand Derfner's and my Justice Deferred: Race and the Supreme Court recognized by my Ph.D. granting institution in the Princeton Alumni Weekly: @Harvard_Press @ClemsonCAAH @ClemsonUniv @ClemsonHistory @JusticeDeferred @Illinois_Alma paw.princeton.edu/article/orvill…

So the Supreme Court of 2021 takes the route of the Court in the 1890s, allowing severe limitations to the right to vote. People, we know where this leads. See Justice Deferred! @JusticeDeferred #racialjustice

@JusticeDeferred See review in Princeton PAW dated June 28, 2021.

I just read a wonderful review of Justice Deferred in the Princeton PAW. @JusticeDeferred @vernonburton1 #racialjustice

@JusticeDeferred So much of the news today is a consequence of past judicial decisions. See, for one example, the Ku Klux Act of 1871 and its relevance to the Jan insurrection and the bus harassment last October in Texas. @vernonburton1 #racialjustice

I have just re-read MLK's Letter from Birmingham City Jail (1963). Wow! Every word still relevant. Here's one thought: "I had hoped that the white moderate would understand that law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice..." @JusticeDeferred #racialjustice

TPM just ran an excerpt from Justice Deferred on how the Roberts Court prepared the way to annihilate the Voting Rights Act. @TPM @JusticeDeferred @HC_Richardson #racialjustice

The Progressive Magazine has a fab review of Justice Deferred @fryegalliard @USSupremeCourt #RacialEquity @JusticeDeferred

Do not worry about "Critical Race Theory." Calling it a name so that people can fear it. Teaching about race relations is very simply telling the whole truth about our history. It DOES NOT teach children to hate our country. Absurd! @JusticeDeferred #racialjustice

After a year of homeschool teaching about New Mexico’s history of colonization, I agree. This is hard and absolutely necessary.
George Takei@GeorgeTakei
Whether it's the unearthed remains of indigenous children at a boarding school, or finally a visit to Tulsa by a president 100 years later, one thing is clear: We cannot move forward until we acknowledge the atrocities of the past. We must teach true history, however painful.

Loewen is so right about how much white students need to learn about equality. @JusticeDeferred
James W. Loewen@JamesWLoewen
[p.2] , chance to pick up a book and see a character that looks DIFFERENT from them and thus appreciate the humanity of us all. Hence overwhelmingly White districts need diversity even more! washingtonpost.com/local/educatio…

I have been reading about the historiography of the studies of slavery. How can so many have been so wrong? See @JusticeDeferred @JamesWLoewen @VernonBurton1 #racialjustice

So much of the USA today has an interesting history, sometimes horrific, sometimes heroic, sometimes both.
Tulsa Massacre; segregated neighborhoods. Did the Supreme Court have anything to do with this? Read and learn. @joelderfner @VernonBurton1
English
The story of the Tulsa Massacre needs to be told. Truth has to come before reconciliation. Remember renowned historian John Hope Franklin? His father helped the community in the aftermath of this horrendous event. See Chapter 5 of Justice Deferred. @JusticeDeferred
