The state legislature even rejected a local control option that would allow school districts to decide that Black and White students could attend schools together. But under the state’s massive resistance plan, public schools were closed to avoid complying with court orders to desegregate. Some county officials just shut down their public schools completely. The state even funded the establishment of private schools that were only open to White students. It took years, and more Supreme Court rulings in 1964 and 1968, for desegregation to take hold across the state.
In 2019, a federal appeals court ruled that the school board in Washington State was correct when it fired Coach Joe Kennedy for praying publicly. A judge of the Ninth Circuit said, “A coach’s duty to serve as a good role model requires the coach to refrain from any manifestation of religious faith — even when the coach is plainly not on duty.” Where does freedom start and stop?

The Supreme Court’s leak shook the Nation. People, especially women, stormed into the streets in disbelief after learning about leakage of Justice Alito’s draft opinion. It wasn’t just a tiny leak. It was more like the leak caused by the iceberg that tore open the hull of the Titanic, causing it to sink.
With no federal law deeming lynching illegal, America could turn a blind eye to these atrocities. Sponsored by U.S. Rep. Bobby L. Rush in the House (D-Ill) and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) in the Senate, the Senate unanimously passed the Emmet Till Anti-Lynching Legislation, and House approved it 422 to 3. With this law finally in place, the dawning of a racial reckoning in the United States seems more believable than ever before.
So, what is all the fuss about? It’s about cheap labor. The wealthy, like the CEO banking away $6,400,000 a year, want an ample supply of cheap labor to ensure their luxurious lifestyles.
