8. Well he was a victim of a high tech lynching.
Just ask him, he'll tell you what a hero he was for having to endure that.

4. Clarence Thomas was 2 years ahead of me at Holy Cross back in the 70's.

10. He was chair of the eeoc as well as assistant secretary of education for the office of civil rights
Of course, mostly he made sure corporations were safe from civil rights litigation; but hey, he has civil rights on his resume....
