No Platitude Zone
I won’t be interviewing anyone from the NAACP or the Urban League or the Interfaith Network. I won’t be talking to the police chief or the mayor or a councilmember. I won’t reach out to a senator or a conflict negotiator or a psychologist for why this latest violence in South Carolina happened because all I’ll hear is everything I’ve heard before. And right now, I don’t have much stomach for platitudes. Maybe later, but not right now.
American is one messed up country where there are no simple questions OR answers. Even the white supremacists are trying to distance themselves from the shooter:
