Who are the Jena "6"?
Read the story and watch the video here that explains it all and then shake your head at how crazy this country really is.
Of course, even if you only knew the story of Genarlow Wilson and nothing else about the US's history of race relations, you'd already know that things are kind of twisted around these parts in that department.
Meanwhile, I gotta suffer through the indignity of watching Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie and Sally Kirkland dress up in 'Blackface' in the name of entertainment but you stupid-ass rappers still hang out with her like everything's sweet. Spike Lee and Nas were right!
Thanks Boing, Boing for the heads-up on the Jena "6" story.
