The email box has been full with people asking for comment on Liena's post about two black children in the library researching for books on Black History Month. Apparently this is supposed to be Ditmas Park Blogs contribution to Black History Month. I don't really know what to say because it is more than obvious that if Liena associated with anyone of color that she would know that her "joke" was offensive and also not news. The woman is an insensitive racist hack. No one should be surprised.
What else is happening?
