When Obama was elected I realized that those high school friends that I thought were friends, were not. With social media, I saw an entirely different side of those people.
I recall one person said that he didn't have any problem with Black people, that he hung out all the time with **. When I challenged him on how many times he came across the tracks to hang out with him on the east side or invited him to hang out on the west side, he asked why was I starting trouble. The truth was, they left campus almost every day at lunch time to smoke weed.
He then told me that he noticed at the one and only high school gathering i attended, that in all of the photos, i was noticeably only standing next to Black people. I posted the photos which clearly showed something that I had Caucasians on either side of me in all photos.
During the Obama years, I realized they always felt a certain way. I just couldn't see it at the time.
Horrible to see something like that be given a high mark, instead of educated corrections and a warning about toxic and irrational thinking from the Professors.
Deplorable, inexcusable, and intellectually sub-par. Kindly stated.

Well, brother, there’s an old saying, “The more things change, the more they stay the same”
Don't trust 99.9% of them anymore. 🥹
