Happy Juneteenth Day To Us All

Then The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed on June 19, 1964.

The article, subtitled: A very silly man gives a very sinister speech, was written by Christopher Hitchens.

In the words of Laugh-In's Arte Johnson --

"Veddy interesting... but schtupid."

More to come later . . . maybe.
