Woman rides in Rose Bowl parade almost 60 years after being snubbed because of her race.

 

 

 I have spoken to this woman several times before. She is a very nice woman. She is the wife of this man:

It was his story that was told in the first HBO film The Tuskegee Airmen. She was not Duchess Arlene by the way.. That was a girlfriend he had before they met. When I heard this story I had no idea it was her until I saw a picture of her with her husband.

Her "race"! I could have spent a lifetime with her and never found out. Not that I care, a beauty is a beauty regardless of skin colour, sometimes just because of it in my opinion.

The sad thing is that stupidity is not over as we see daily on the news.
