ACLU recants tweet featuring white child, agrees it’s racist
Defender of free speech kowtows to race baiters
In one of the dumber things to have happened this week (and that’s a title that’s increasingly difficult to bestow), the ACLU sent what to most normal people would be a perfectly acceptable tweet.
This one:

But because this is a garbage time to be alive, a handful of individuals thought that the ACLU’s choice of a white child meant the organization was perpetuating racism.

To which the defenders of “civil liberty” which ought to include free speech, then apologized for perpetuating white supremacy:

Black and brown children? Sure. White child? YOU ARE CLEARLY A PROPONENT OF WHITE SUPREMACY.

Looks mixed with a bit of a tan to me. Bet that hair ends up brown by the time they’re 12 too.
This is the problem with “the brown paper bag” test – people literally start judging people by the color of their skin, not the content of their character *or* genetics.
MLK is rolling in his grave.
