"non contributing, long dead, nobodies". Like Martin Luther King, but you still worship him.

Who cares about Bedford Forrest or your dead racist fathers. Let them rest in hell because they're not appreciated here. They are non contributing, long dead, nobodies. Cold and very much dead.

As they are all racists Memphis will be forever stuck in the past. As far as I know there are no longer any slaves left except for the ones sucking on the government teats.

A few years back it filled me with pride to be able to shake the hand of a great man. Walter Bailey. I did not realize what a racist he was.
