    Surprised that people are surprised to see Confederate flags on display in Michigan. The idea this state is less racist than places like the deep south is a myth.

        My interactions with the police in Oklahoma (Norman, so a college town) vs Lansing and EL suggest that MI is a lot less racist. Not good enough, not by any means. But still much better

        People seem to forget the role of Michiganders in the OKC bombing and the Militia movements.

        I'm surprised Fouts doesn't have one on his desk.

        George Wallace's bid for the Presidency got a boost in Michigan back in the day. This time the racists got support from the DeVos klan too..https://twitter.com/SanhoTree/status/1250926118787522561 …

        This reminds me of the same set of billionaires who helped create the so-called Tea Party (or “Tea Baggers” as they originally branded themselves) to try to stop Obamacare in 2009. Well-funded AstroTurf armies of dupes and angry white people. Cannon fodder for the DeVos family. https://twitter.com/SanhoTree/status/1250820345369628678 …

        Same in Wisconsin, unfortunately. There’s an expression in WI: the further north you go, the further south you go. 😕

        Of course there are racists in Michigan. Trump won Michigan. But by a slim margin. The idea that Michigan is as racist as the Deep South is a stretch.
