Set a spell this fine Juneteenth while I tell you a story (again). It's a long one, so grab snacks.

A white man named Bob McWhirter is running for Maricopa County Attorney as a D. Maricopa County is the 4th most populous county in the US, so this race will impact a lot of lives.

Bob is a quirky fellow who collects pipes and wears a hat and suspenders. He's your typical liberal fellow who claims he’s down for social justice and the State Bar even taps him to teach “diversity and inclusion” classes. [Let that sink in.]

2 years ago at a conference put on by the affinity bars (women, black, Latinx, Asian, Native, etc.), somehow folks decided Bob should teach a class. [Insert my side-eye].

During that course, Bob, like a lot of liberal white guys, jumped at the chance to use the word “n*gger” during his presentation where he, a white man, explained the history of the term.
