First Person account of N.O. on This American Life
I'm listening to her right now. I remember reading her account on the net yesterday -- thought it was a link from DU but I can't find it now.
They tried to walk out of town over the bridge and were fired at by the police from the next county who wouldn't "let no niggers turn their town into the Superdome".
I wish/hope someone had a camera. All I could think listening to her was Selma and the Edmund Pettis bridge.
WE'VE COME NOWHERE since then. This country is still a RACIST CESS-POOL.
