Stillwater Tough On Black People?

This was a headline in the Chicago Sun-Times this morning talking about Stillwater.

So what happened to this?

Jesse Jackson’s asst: “We are here tonight because we are not white or black. We are trying to do what’s right.”

If you’re black and you live (or lived) in Stillwater, I’d love to hear what you have to think about this.

I’m not saying prejudices don’t exist or that there isn’t still racism alive in America, I just want to know what people really think.
