This I like.

It is a power-based mentality necessary to leverage to political currency of African America.

Tennessee is a State where only one of its Senators chose to co-sponsor the Apology-for-lynching Resolution.

Rep. Ford's candidacy will be a difficult uphill fight.

I would love to see it happen.

I am not optimistic, however, that he can expand his victory in a Congressional District to the entire State of Tennessee which is still reluctant to acknowledge national (documented) anti-racial behavior.
