Why does it take Evil Racist Republicans to repeal Jim Crow Laws?

The Republicans take control of the Georgia Legislature for the first time in a century and they repeal the Jim Crow Laws. The democrats scream the Republicans are racists, but it seems when good things happen for Blacks in Georgia, Republicans are behind it.

I know it is a purely symbolic gesture, but why didn’t the Democrats do something about it previously?

Perdue signs bills erasing ‘Jim Crow’ laws

With a few strokes of his pen, Gov. Sonny Perdue on Thursday erased some of the ugliest parts of Georgia’s history from the state’s legal code.

The governor signed four bills that repeal segregation-era laws. The laws have not been enforced in years, but they remained in the code. Perdue said that removing the laws is not only a symbolic gesture, but also a substantive one.

“Today I think is another important step in the ongoing process of putting real meat to the process of racial reconciliation in Georgia,” Perdue said in his office before signing the bills.

The laws were aimed at circumventing the desegregation of public schools following the 1954 Supreme Court decision of Brown vs. Board of Education:

That is why you elect Republicans, we have substance, not rhetoric. As opposed to our most loyal opposition across the aisle.

They Chose the Right Person for a Hunger Strike

I think she will survive…

Hungerstrike

From The Contra Costa Times:

On the fourth night of her front yard hunger strike, Diana Ponce lay delirious under the carport, fighting off the chill under a fuzzy blanket emblazoned with the Mexican flag.

Neighbors sat clustered around her on white plastic lawn chairs. Children smacked at a yellow volleyball in the street. Toddlers tricycled past fence-strung banners that read “Tenemos Que Unirnos” — We have to unite.

Outraged by recent news accounts of vigilante Mexican border hawks, the 32-year-old San Pablo woman took to the streets — really, her driveway — on two lawn chairs pushed together. Ponce, a diabetic, is fasting there for a week.

“How dare they call us terrorists,” she said.

She refused not only food, but also water for the first two days of her fast, which ends Thursday.
