This is the first time I've used the Twitter thing like everyone else does. I just started watching The Wire. The drug dealing kids in the projects are bad, the cops coming in and violating their civil rights are just...no, worse.

"When my
father was eight, his
grandfather, William M. Buchanan, the Confederate veteran of Atlanta and Yankee prison, died in Okolona; and my father made his trip south to the ancestral home. What he remembered was the uncommon closeness of the Buchanan clan and the black servants who lived with them. All his life my father would insist that while there were brutal white Southerners who reveled in mistreating black people, there also existed, between the decent country peoples of the South, Negro and white, feudal bonds of friendship, affection, and mutual regard Northerners did not understand. They had, he said, a way of living together down there that made life, for both, less harsh than the callous and cold indifference both confronted in the segregated cities of the North."
