[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of you know anything about Ward 8. If you did, you'd know Trayon has been a community activist and organizer for almost 20 years. That's why he was elected, that's why he'll be reelected, and that's why he deserves to be a councilman. Because he's been busting his hump for his neighbors to try and make Ward 8 a better place for the people who live there since he was 20. I've been familiar with and watched Trayon White from a modest distance for my entire career as a journalist in DC. There are very few people his age who have given more of themselves to DC. He reminds me very much of the young, idealistic Marion Barry of the late 70's. The fact that he doesn't conform to your white-biased standards of opinion, manner and conduct with regards to topics relevant to white people, is meaningless. So what if he's less than informed about or even casually indifferent to the Holocaust? [b]That's not his struggle[/b]. Black people endured their own holocaust, and some still are enduring it in many ways. That's what Trayon White cares about. Seeking your approval is pointless to him. As it should be.
