Will the South ever evolve?
The story of the Cannon Street baseball team is heartbreaking but somewhat uplifting given their reception at the Little League World Series. Still, those little boys deserved to play.

I’m a white woman born in 1964 in a very liberal college town in Missouri and I remember my dad telling me about this story because he was a huge baseball fan. And fortunately, very pro-Civil Rights.

Just let them play (and vote without restriction, control their own bodies, learn actual history, drive while Black, etc.) Shame on the far right for keeping hate alive.
