Currently, the sitting mayor of the city of Baltimore is facing criminal charges that, if convicted, would force her out of office.
This morning, the following article appeared in the news:

If you think by moving here from Alabama that we were leaving a large part of racism behind, let that story reveal reality. I am appalled. Racism of any kind disgusts me. We came here to be agents of change, and this is one of many examples of why.
I don’t like to post on political issues . . . but this goes way beyond politics. This is at the core of who we are as Americans and residents of the Baltimore region.
I had a whole blog post written on my thoughts, but I just can’t even bring myself to post them. I don’t want to stoop to that level.
What do you think?
