New museum showcases racist artifacts

BIG RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) — The objects displayed in Michigan's newest museum range from the ordinary, such as simple ashtrays and fishing lures, to the grotesque — a full-size replica of a lynching tree.

Boycotting Arizona’s racism

Arizona was the only territory west of Texas to secede from the Union and join the Confederacy during the Civil War. A century later, it fought recognition of the Martin Luther King Jr. federal holiday. This week, an anti-immigrant bill was signed into law by Republican Gov. Jan Brewer. Arizona Senate Bill 1070 empowers state and local law enforcement to stop, question and arrest whoever they suspect may not be in the state legally. The law is an open invitation to sweeping racial profiling and arbitrary detention.

‘Justice’ is still out there

It’s customary to describe the death of a figure like Arkansas’ “Justice Jim” Johnson as the end of an era. Riddled with cancer, the 85-year-old segregationist killed himself with a deer rifle at the Conway home he called “Whitehaven” -the name his way of telling critics of his racial views, he once told an interviewer, and that they could “kiss my ÀÀÀ.” People who have underestimated the legacy of Justice Jim and like-minded rabble-rousers, as the Obama administration appears to have done, however, could end up paying a terrible price.

When did opposition become racism?

South Carolina Republican Rep. Joe Wilson may have unexpectedly ignited an explosion of race rhetoric with two words in the House chamber — “You lie” — but I can snuff it out with two words in a newspaper — “Jimmy Carter.”

The racism card

When Barack Obama was elected president of the United States, some suggested that race played a factor in his success. People “wanted” to elect a black man president because of our history of slavery and the denial of civil rights for so many years to African-Americans. It is never “racism” to vote for someone because he is black. It is only racism to oppose the policies of a black Democrat.
