And there was a recent Republican Voting Strategy recording which talks about how limiting the vote to just the one day and such will help them in battleground states. I don't know were I heard it, but it was in the last few days.
I grew up in all-white, rural Oregon. All white faces on our 3 channels of TV. All white voices on the 2 radio stations. I thought about Blacks & Latinos the way Jim Crow America had been teaching Whites to think about them since the Civil War. I was an ignorant dumbass.
But that was 50 years ago. We get 50 channels of TV now. Most of us have a dozen other sources of info we didn't have in 1980. Ain't no ignorance anymore. What we hear here is self-selected, murderous bigotry.
Apparently the person who recorded the racist cops and gave it to the McCurtain Gazette-News did the recording 'illegally' so Sherriffs office is saying they'll be charged with a felony. I really hope the FBI gets involved and gets those awful people out of law enforcement. https://apnews.com/article/mccurtain-oklahoma-racist-killing-journalists-recording-196ab0bf32fe8a5c0b48ef25c0af3c9f
I’m a consultant working in agriculture for Oklahoma farmers. There’s a lot of 19th century thinking in that state. It’s wild.
