Last month, I urged dispirited conservatives to take an active role in supporting the candidates, officeholders, and issues that reflect our views and values. One of the campaigns I mentioned was my friend and hero Ward Connerly’s multi-state battle this fall to end discriminatory government race and gender preferences.She also gives us this lovely video of an irate woman protesting someone collecting signatures for the Oklahoma Civil Rights Initiative:
While so many other false prophets preach the color-blind gospel, Connerly is, as I’ve said before, the real deal.
The drive to end state-sponsored racial and sexual discrimination was successful here in Michigan two years ago, despite the legions of leftist goons who repeatedly harassed and intimidated supporters of the MCRI. Now that Michigan, California, and Washington state have passed these landmark color-blind amendments, five more states have them on the ballot: Arizona, Colorado, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Missouri.
The tide of anti-discriminatory law is turning into unstoppable momentum. TW2 wants to congratulate Ward Connerly for the success he is now enjoying after years of insults and demonization directed at him and his associates. I would also like to thank him for giving Michigan the chance to be one of the first states to adopt this crucial law.
