Senator Tom Cotton, Republican of Arkansas the state that gave us Orvile Faubus and Eisenhower’s federal troops to protect a few black students integrating Ark City High has recently explained how good slavery was for America its being a “necessary evil.”
In 1920 during the Red Summer Arkansas was the scene of one of the worst massacres of black people in our History.
But even I was taken aback by this distilation of the white supremecy of an Arkansas town famed for chasing out blacks decades ago and being the home of KKK.
