    Crazy to think this was as late as 1957. Now that the US has one of those harassing kids behind the wheel, you should be back in the '50s within a couple of years, yeah?

        Only one boy in that horrible photograph did ask Dorothy for forgiveness. They became good friends. He died in 2010.

        Shame it seems hate fueled mfs live forever.

          Good for that guy. I don’t really fault kids like that for terrible beliefs. But I do fault them as they age and fail to reconsider the shitty things their community taught them.

            I hear you. I did not reply as a fwiw to redeem this shit, as it does not bring any redemption on how awful she must have felt on that moment and afterwards. It is more a snide on how many racist mfs are out there getting older than they should. Not only in the US, but my home country is riddled with these fokkers today.

      I’m so impressed by the strength of character she has to go up against the world like this… A 15 year old girl? What a remarkable person.

      I don’t find the picture sad, on the contrary, it’s goddamn inspiring!

    Those people are our grandparents.

    Just think about how many of your sweet doting grandparents were in situations just like this that weren’t photographed.

    How many of our grandparents strung the rope for the lynch mob?

    How many of our grandparents were hurling racial slurs at the tops of their lungs?

    Did they really need to change their family name to Counts just to prove she belonged in school, though?

    Seems like every time white people get a chance to show their inferiority and inferiority complexes, they jump headfirst into it.
    These are the people who used to vote Democrat, then when the Equal Rights Act was passed, they flocked towards the republican party.

    This is what reagan leaned on when kickstarting his 1980 presidential campaign, deep in the south, political fanfare with a dog whistle, the following exact words: “Make America great again.”
