No Happy Talk Here. It was very revealing, to say the least. They said he should not be trying to win a spot at the council table from a district that was specifically drawn with the intention of promoting the chances of minority candidates. She said Mr. Oakley should have supported a black candidate who shares his views.
Hate is a dead end street.
I would like to point out that this might not be the best time for Ms. Ragsdale or any other Black leaders to make this a black and white issue. It's safe to say that everyone in Dallas is tired of black and white issues. For the record, I'm the product of a Hispanic father and an Anglo mother, and I've lived in Oak Cliff for 33 years. Although I cannot presume to speak for either group, I know there are others who share my feelings. I'm supporting Ed Oakley for City council.
