I hope so. She painted a huge target on herself by those very stupid comments. There have to be more than a few lawyers looking at this! It isn't often that Government officials publicly state open bias against people based on skin color.

But there is something else that intrigues me about how she worded this. She implied that there should be a form of segregation established. White people who need help from the Government should go to their own kind. By inference, if a black person seeks help from a black Government official, it will be granted because it is from his own kind.

So for the sake of pouring more gas on the fire, would Sherrod say that black children who want an education should go to the own kind? Black people who need medical care should go to their own kind? Black people who want jobs should go to their own kind? Black people who want to eat in a restaurant should go to one owned by their own kind?

Perhaps not publicly, but they certainly do personally in the arena of official government business affairs.

I represented one (white)woman whose husband died & when she went to apply for food stamps she was basically kicked out of the office in Norristown, Pa.
The black caseworker stated to her: “Its people like you who are taking money away from our people.”

Were it not for the fact that she recorded this on her cell phone, the entire affair would have been ignored.
As it turns out, nothing whatsoever was done to the caseworker and she still holds that position today.

Black racism is well entrenched in the NE. - Learn to fight because it isnt going to get any better - ever.
