This quote came from a story in today’s New York Times:
In Arkansas, which had among the nation’s largest concentration of counties increasing their support for the Republican candidate over the 2004 vote, “there’s a clear indication that racial conservatism was a component of that shift away from the Democrat,†said Jay Barth, a political scientist in the state.
“Racial conservatism”? I think they call that … um … racism. The first step in fixing the problem is using real words to describe it.
