Reports are that 120 of her law clerks are participating in her funeral service now underway. They conveyed an impressive show of respect when they all lined up on the steps of the Supreme Court to receive her coffin.
But am I the only one who was hard-pressed to find more than two Black faces among them? WTF, RBG!
Frankly, I’d be shocked and dismayed to learn that Blacks constitute less than 10 percent of the law clerks she hired and mentored during her 27 years on the bench.
But, even if she hired only a few token Blacks, it would compound my disillusionment if organizers of today’s service decided to ape those who organize Trump’s rally, namely by featuring “her African Americans” as two of the eight pallbearers. SMH.
