How a person's career ends tends to leave the biggest mark, not what you accomplished.<BR/><BR/>Just goes to show how racism can kill a career.bettye griffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04457387770524295498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35476861.post-2862858172530384352007-10-26T08:26:00.000-05:002007-10-26T08:26:00.000-05:00At 80, he knew exactly what he was saying.
