Well, John Reed is dead. He was the intellectually corrupt head of the local human rights commission in Barnstable, MA. For him, I was the wrong race, and so to be ignored. So, how can I possibly write, RIP? Rather RII, Rest In Infamy! Below is an aquarelle I sketched on him a while ago. Bureaucrat educator/columnist Lawrence Brown just wrote a Cape Cod Times hagiography on him, "Opinion/Brown: John Reed Cape civil rights activist pushed us to think about race, justice," which is how I was informed of the death. And so, I write a counter-essay, which will be sent to the brick wall Times, which refuses to publish anything I send it...
