Recy Taylor, gang-raped by white men.

This case makes my blood boil! Had the roles been reversed and a gang of black men raped a white woman they would have been lynched. This poor 24-year-old married black woman was subjected to a rape by white men who hated her and her kind--the same people who wouldn't be seen with a black woman; who thought blacks were unworthy of education, the vote, sharing a water fountain, restaurant, bathroom, school, church, a seat at the front of a bus, and always related to the "back door" of any establishment or a home. Rape is the most degrading of crimes. It has nothing to do with sex; it is about control and demeaning the person.

Hell isn't big enough for the likes of these men. At age 90, I am glad Mrs. Recy Taylor finally received an apology from the State of Alabama and that the State and, hopefully, its people recognize the cruelty of slavery and segregation, and that they realize that God created EACH OF US. I really wonder what the racists and bigots will think on Judgment Day when they realize that HEAVEN HAS NO BACK DOOR.
