Patterson time to retire
I had enjoyed celebrating Martin Luther King Day at the Detroit Institute of Arts, seeing a documentary about this visionary who never cast derogatory or inflammatory remarks about his adversaries, the small, bigoted and violent resisters to social justice. Then we see the remarks by Brooks Patterson, who made his career riding that hostile wave of that day and has seemingly not adjusted to the 21st century. He very much fits with the older resistant era. It’s time for Brooks to retire.
