Arnette:

Your post about Claudette Colvin omits several facts, one of which is that the judge imposed a sentence on her that made it impossible for them to appeal the case, another that the strategists made the decision not to appeal it

People can check for themselves at

I think the whole crux of this argument is over the remarks Cedric made in the movie, which seem to be parting on generational, class and skin tone lines.

What if somebody makes a movie and says Fannie Lou and Claudette didn't do squat? Is this okay?
