Better late than never, I suppose.
Now maybe they can stop being so homophobic.
Whoever thought that Stonewall would have been such an appropriate name?
The times, they are a changing
Right? I’ll take baby steps over no steps any day.
And stop stonewalling with their apologies!
Now if the NYPD would apologize for rounding up six young black teenagers and pinning the blame on them for rape and beating almost to death of a jogger in NY in 1989 they’ll be caught up with their mea culpas. City paid out $41M to men later, but they didn’t get their teenage years back.
They won’t be caught up with their mea culpas for way longer than that, alas. But it would be another good step.
If you have Netflix, or have a friend who has it, drop whatever else you’re doing and watch When They See Us, a mini series about these young men who were essentially persecuted for being black.
