But you are right. I don't know what it must have taken to succeed as a black person in that environment. A shame that it still matters, that it ever mattered.
My veteran dad told me stories of how his friend was ridiculed for being black in the 50s when they went to town off base for the night. He was taken aback and still mentioned it 60+ years later. My dad was a republican white guy.
Here’s an article that explains the firings from this evening at the Pentagon. Three JAG officers were fired, along with the Vice Chairman. The Lieutenant General, Trump wants to appoint as Chairman doesn’t even have the prerequisites.
I don't expect we'll get to the 2026 midterms under dictator IL DUCE TRUMP, especially now that he has seized control of our U.S. military to make it his world's-most-powerful right-wing militia sworn to do HIS bidding.

Eventually American history will ignore any accomplishments by people of color, if Trump & Musk have their way. How long before only caucasians will be allowed to play on NBA & NFL teams?
The DEI crusade is an excuse to remove people of color from the ranks and especially those in authority. How is Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr. not qualified?
Good article:
"Unfortunately, as you might have noticed, Congress is currently run by a group of Republicans with their heads so far up Trump’s ass they can taste his Big Macs."

The first headline used an under case “b” for Black. Which was, I believe, disrespectful?
Carlin mentions Powell in ‘We Like War’, but it does not appear Carlin ever said this.
The USA isn’t what it is in the movies.

Apparently, 77 million would agree.
How far are we from the White House just posting:
“Come on, he was just a ni&&er.”
I'm only half kidding.
