Today surprised me. My first stop was Little Rock Central High School, where the 101st Airborne Division had to be called in when the school was forced to integrate in the 50's. Hearing those kids' stories had me in tears. No one should ever have to experience that much hatred. And then hearing them say that they had to work extra hard to prove that blacks people are as smart as white people... The injustice of it all just hit me really hard. And I think it's more upsetting given that one of our front runners for the presidency is someone who's openly racist and hateful. The fact that he has so many supporters tells me our country has a long way to go. I was angry listening to the radio the night before, too. The man on the radio said that he keeps hearing this country has a problem with Islamaphobia. Well, he came to the conclusion it doesn't exist. People obviously don't have any kind of problems with Muslims, because everyone is sad that Muhommed Ali died.
National parks, hiking, canyoneering, and other weird sight-seeing
