All the Washington programs did not make as much difference in race relations as did a local, ground-up peoples program -- college football. Hundreds of thousands of Alabama folks pulling with all their hearts for Blake Sims, Amari Cooper, TJ Yeldon, Nick Marshall, Bo Jackson, Mark Ingram. No one ever says or thinks, He is quite a good black athlete. No. Recruiters working hard to get the very best players, not thinking for one minute, Dont we really need another white player? It seems the people can handle some things themselves better than the government can mandate from above. A rising tide lifts all ships. __Zeigler
