Promising News From Boston
The article is about black history month, but that's not the story. (emphasis mine)
Recently, Larry Watson saw proof in one of the college classes he teaches that Black History Month was needed more than ever.
"I asked the students in my class whether they knew who their Senate representative was," said Watson, who teaches music and sociology at three colleges in Boston. "No one knew. And when I asked who was Sen. Edward Kennedy — the most activist senator in our country — the only thing most of my students could say was that he was fat and that he was drunk. I hate to think what would have happened if I'd asked who was Shirley Chisholm."
It made me smile a little. You know the libs are losing when they can't even protect "Drunk Ted No Pants' " image at home. Maybe there is hope for the future of Massachusetts after all.
