Yes it is. I just read that the band Confederate Railroad has been cancelled for a performance somewhere because of their band name.
I also predict that President Grant will find disfavor because he owned a slave (William Jones).

Many black fathers (if not all black fathers) have had "the talk" with their sons (and I am not talking about "the birds and the bees"). And, I remember years ago reading that even black members of the U. S. Congress (while members of Congress) have been pulled over for "driving while black" and the utmost respect and deference that young black men must show to the police officers, for their own good.

Is this statement true or not? And, is this still a problem? I believe that Colin Kaepernick has determined that this police practice is offensive.

Most of my patients are African-Americans. I can tell you that they believe it is true.
