Today, as I watched the Mad Men episode with the assassination of Kennedy, I realized something horrible: I think it would mean more to this country and truly stimulate enlightenment for us to lose our first black president, than it even did for him to be elected. Like Martin Luther King, Jr., is it possible more people listened and cared after he died? I wish I knew. And I wish I knew what it would mean in post-racial society.
