Peter Berg Quotes
Where do you go to buy back your reputation when you lose it?
An expose claimed that arch segregationist Senator Strom Thurmond had a sexual relationship with a Black woman and had a grown daughter as a result of that liaison. Congressman Wison, a redneck racist made this statement. Soon after, the daughter came out of the closet and the affair was out in the open. What is particularly interesting is that Wilson did not claim that the claim was a smear on the Senator’s morality, but he saw an accusation of fathering a mulatto child as a smear in INTEGRITY. This illustrates how pervasive the segregationist mentality extends to all facets of character.
