Quote of the Day

Beloved, there is a truth to Trump's election that many of you refuse to see: too many white folk are willing to imperil the ship of state because they lust for revenge.  It is, in truth, wevenge, the unrepentant mutiny of a rogue white crew.  They seem willing to cast aside a seasoned leader because of her gender, and her connection to the previous captain.  Instead, they have embraced a fatally inexperienced skipper who threatens to wreck the vaunted vessel of government in the rocky waters of political ignorance.

-- Michael Eric Dyson, Tears We Cannot Stop, p. 222
