The 8 Mile Racist War? Gordo And Pickens County Controversy
This is racist.
#RacismIsEverywhere
RACIST!!!!!
Is racism really everywhere in everything?
A photo has caused an entire game in a 100-year rivalry to be cancelled.
The photo was of a "safari" style costume day at Gordo High School.
It included animals and bananas. One of the animals was a monkey.
Some people got very upset about this photo and called it "very racist".
I believe we are in dangerous territory, and it is incumbent upon us all to be heard on these matters.
We seem to inject racism into whatever random thing we choose to inject racism.
It diminishes the ACTUAL cases of racist behavior in society.
YOU CAN'T WIN
Nobody can win in today's world.
I could cite hundreds of examples that show how impossible it is to make EVERYONE happy or agree.
You do something with a good heart and the right intentions, and you can EASILY be savagely attacked and chewed up by a mob online.
Here's what some people in West Alabama and across the state are saying about the Gordo/Pickens County controversy.
