I was forced to read this crap as a Frosh in college during the 70's. The fag history teacher also had a hot wife that he used as his secretary. No matter who you were if you acted interested she and the prof would invite you over for dinner.
As a mulatto I was especially interesting.

Then I graduated and got a job where nothing was given to me. I got where I was because I worked hard and was smart.

I hate the blacks today because they want it handed to them.
