Fox News: Your Lies Won’t Stop Black Women Like Shirley Sherrod

I am disgusted by the treatment of an unsung American heroine, Shirley Sherrod, at the hands of Fox News and Breitbart.com, a far right web site.  This woman, who has helped countless farmers keep their land, was accused by Fox News of racism based on manipulative editing of a tape of a speech she gave about how she learned that RACE SHOULD NEVER MATTER IN HELPING THE POOR.

For telling her tale of enlightenment, and discovering that racism is NEVER the answer, in ANY community, she was lied about, misquoted, and ultimately lost her job she held in the US Department of Agriculture.
