Del Haven - I was the Nerd, more interested in study than sports. My Father being a Laborer, there was no money for college. I took a job in a firm where my function was filling the water cooler. I hung in there and went to Night School for twelve years, got my degree. I had learned a lot by Osmosis & studying & working hard. Twenty four years on the job and I was considered to be the "Go to" guy & up for promotion. In walked Clinton and AA. I and others like me were let go. We were older White men and had to go. I was never able to regain the loss. Where's the Social Justice in that?
