...are more likely the white people who performed the ugliness.
The Civil Rights photos are more akin to the Abu Gharib photos - the results of allowing the type of thinking in the letter to go unquestioned.
I think we all agree that the letter is repugnant.
And be honest - How many letters from readers of Glamour state a viewpoint that is repugnant or outrageous? Most are god-awful bland; not even as feisty as Oprah. By placing this letter amongst such bland fare, the magazine is stating that this is, indeed, just another point of view (low-carb or South Beach diet?).
