There's a fresh new generation of racists out there.

'Racial progress' will happen as immigration overwhelms the issue with numbers.

What we have to do is stop sitting idly by, tacitly accepting these racists as if "boys will be boys."

This is like saying "We will just have to wait for child pornographers to die out." Bull.

We need public figures to stand up to the racists, including the ones hanging out in mega-churches, in Congress and in other places of power.
