Turning back the hands to an uglier time.

We are not all like that. Resist.

there's more of us than them. Those people are ugly on the inside, as well. This crap had been brewing in a toxic stew for quite a while. Trump just brought it to the forefront.

Yes. Correct. We are more and we are stronger.

Please applaud the people who who want are standing for love and justice, and to the mayor. The authoritarians are in the minority but they have been emboldened by Trump.

This town depend on tourism and preserving its character, and the sign was put up just to blackmail them into approving a development project.

came to help remove the sign. They do deserve our support; bashing the entire town for the actions of a few would be counterproductive.

I live in a small town not far from Dahlonega. I attended a talk last month on the "forgotten Blacks" in the area and was surprised to learn that this mountain area became home for many freemen starting near the end of the Civil War. The slave-holding plantations were south and east of here, and this was as far as many traveled to escape. In my county, the Black families were gone by the 1920 census, but it was more a matter of economics than inhospitable people. Apart from the gold rush in Dahlonega, the mountain folk were poor; no industry and little arable land. The Klan was not active here, and would not have been welcome.

I was quite surprised this morning to open WAPO and see tiny Dahlonega on the front page. But I was not surprised at the push-back. My daughter graduated from the college there, and I used to drive over on Sundays for us to attend the UU church mentioned in the article. The first blessing of a same-sex union that I attended was in that church; no gay marriages at that time, but their joining was celebrated. Liberals do out number racists and bigots, and they are not afraid to stand up.

They loved their Stars 'n Bars, drank their Jack Daniels and grooved out to Lynrd Skynrd.

One used to tell me how much Klan ass he used kick.
