Hello, Michael. I have to laugh b/c I tend to have the same reaction. I don't write in contemplation of you. I write to consider the wedge of White America outraged at Black America for strange and inexplicable reasons.

That provokes you. I understand. You have made that clear.

Noted; and, I leave you to that provocation. It is, of course, your choice but we needn't continue the dance here.

Be well Michael, and have a happy holiday.
