Bilirubin posted:Serious posting a sec...after Charlotteville some fellow I know from the pub posted on FB about how he didn't get white privilege, and didn't think it existed. I mean, the guy is basically a walking talking example (in management, a mason), but more it pissed me off that, even after living half my life in Canada nothing makes me feel more American than hearing some idiot Canadian make sweeping proclamations about US race relations. Lots of others at the pub were equally pissed off it turned out, and it lead to a really great night with a fellow American (an African American, who lived near Charlottesville) ranting for hours as the beers flowed. Which of Douglass's memoirs are you look at, Narrative, My Bondage and My Freedom, or Life and Times? For my money, the second is the best of the bunch as he goes into greater depth than he did in Narrative (which as its name suggests is just that), while Life and Times suffers a bit from being written late in life and thus tinged with being backward-facing and nostalgic at times.

Scrub-Niggurath posted:keep Grant on the 50, he earned it through a lifetime effort of drinking and killing racist southerners Grant wasn't really that much of a drinker. His reputation as a drunk comes from a combination of him being a huge lightweight who got stupid off like two drinks, and vindictive Southern historians.
