Flag Wars

[judecorp]

I'll probably post more about it at a later time, but I wanted to put up this snippet of Flag Wars that really stuck with me:

Court Person: "When you hung up your original sign in 1979, were you told you were in a historical district?"
Neighborhood Man: "I was told I lived in the ghetto."

Oh, and Jennifer and I went geocaching yesterday! We found A Sunday Afternoon Cache and Zen's Random Cache.



Ain't she cute? :)

I hear you. Anyone that says we're not classist and racist has their head up their ass, or someone elses maybe.

can't you be classist without being racist?

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. But our society is currently both.

i dunnoh... i usually assume that they're only one but often confuse one for the other.

I think that a lot of what people think is racism is actually classism, but I still think there is some institutionalized discrimination based solely on ethnicity rather than income or social class.

Of course. I should have used 'or' instead of 'and' in my comment.
