Modern-day Patriots, by Sankar Chatterjee

5/5/2017

 
For days now, the group-photos of the dictator’s henchmen (all millionaire Caucasian congressmen) in joyous celebrations have been appearing in the newspapers and on the TV-screens. They were taken right after they had repealed laws from the previous administration meant to protect the job, health-care and education of the minority members of the society.

Prominent African-American Bill Lewis, a repeatedly-tortured and jailed veteran of the past civil-rights movement along with Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., only sees in those photos, a group of past white supremacists who shed their white robes and masks to emerge as the country’s modern-day patriots.
