Greetings:
I would like Aaron Rench to identify the three individuals that we see and
hear in the film My Town. To be more specific, they are the three that are
in view when the interviewer asks Steve Wilkins whether he believes that
only propertied males can vote. Wilkins answers "Yes" and the two others
(Wilson and Grant) nod in approval. This is not just a historical
question, as Roy Atwood wants to explain it away, because Wilson then adds
his anti-democratic joke about the two coyotes and the lamb deciding what
to eat for lunch. Added to this is Rose's quotations from Credenda
Agenda. It is you who have a contradiction on your hands.
If Wilkins and Wilson allow blacks property owning males to vote, then
there is no racism, but there is still no equality before the law. Besides
just because I accept Wilson's own words that he is not a racist doesn't
mean that he is not one.
