Racism is OK if...

My capacity for outrage is being distilled and diluted by the constant barrage of outrageousness, even though I know that this is exactly what they want.

You probably know by now that Harriet Tubman has disappeared from the National Park Service's web page on the Underground Railroad.  According to the new text, the Underground Railroad was “one of the most significant expressions of the American civil rights movement.”

And - oh yes, slavery is gone.  No mention at all.

I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this, except to say that it seems that racism is OK if slavery never existed.
