2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Bernie Supporters - Please read my post [View all]bravenak
(34,648 posts)My role today was teacher, not student. As a black person I study civil rights history like my life depends on it; it does depend on it. Read my sigline. Anybody you meet here on DU who is black is reasonably well educated, many have advanced degrees. I know much and more about civil rights, they are far more educated than I and I learn from them.
It is rude to assume people are not informed on history and Civil rights. I am here, therefore I obviously have a great concern for our political interests and since I constantly discuss civil rights and black history, it should be obvious that I know enough and educate myself enough so that you would learn more from me than I from you.
Now, I already posted that in the forum I post; the African Anerican forum when it occured and posted an excerp, so there is no need to whip that out on me like I had no idea.
