Former left-wing radical Clarence Thomas discusses his life and what he's learned

http://dailysignal.com/2018/01/07/justice-clarence-thomas-opens-life-faith-interracial-marriage/

"From a life that launched from economic deprivation, illiteracy, family dysfunction, and even time as a radical leftist, his accomplishments now reach to the U.S. Supreme Court—where he faces constant vilification and defamation. He says he learned the value of humility, patience, and persistence, but the bedrock of his rules for living came from simple aphorisms from his illiterate grandfather.""

He calls his life a miracle.

And he has quite a sense of humor.

"Ritual defamation." Now that's something to remember.

I thought so, too. Wasn't familiar with the term, but it absolutely is what happens to blacks or Hispanics who won't dance to the tune of the Democrats. And it's daily with President Trump who is routinely accused of racism, homophobia, sexism, etc. when in fact, most of his life he was a liberal Democrat. http://www.thesocialcontract.com/pdf/twenty-three/tsc_20_3_wilcox_defamation.pdf
