Not sure why they always have to revisit the past though!


Because blasting Mississippi (and the south) makes the rest of the country feel better about themselves. It's exactly the same as all the non-Mississippi asssholes on this board putting down Mississippi when all the frick that separates them from Mississippians is that they weren't born in Mississippi. The fact that there are larger cities and more tax dollars in the geographic locale in which someone is born clearly makes them a better person.
The country ridicules the south and the south ridicules Mississippi. That's why anything ever written or said about Mississippi, Ole Miss, or Mississippi State will always include historical references -- because it just feels so frickin' good.

I had someone from Chicago (where 80% of 8th graders can't read) school me on racism in Mississippi.

I asked him his thoughts on the Red Summer and he gave me a puzzled look.
