This is quite a reply. There is a lot of information to digest here. Harvard Professor Henry Louis Gates wrote a wonderful book on the Reconstruction backlash when it happened and when Barack Obama got elected. That election woke the Southern rage anew according to Gates.

Barbara, many of us who wept with joy when Barack Obama won knew that it would probably end very badly. I prayed that it wouldn’t be an assassination. Living in the south, we felt the smoldering heat of white rage slowly building in some areas, but never could have imagined the way things would turn out as they have. It is no longer a Black President; now it is a multi-racial Vice President and soon a Black Justice, and every other grievance that mostly low functioning people — who actually do the violence for the instigator/financiers — have been nurturing, including “freedom.” Now it spreads to Canada? What? Seriously?
Thanks for this insight. I also (naively) thought the elections of Obama and Biden would herald in new days. And now Canada. Oh Canada. I have a sincere question Gus. What exactly do you think the "it" is that is spreading?

We are not done with this in any way.
