    Just got text message from the campaign of a young Black mayoral candidate here in my Atlanta suburb in the lead up to our local election on Tues Nov 5th, 2019.

    The text was raving about an endorsement from Dr Jaha Howard, a pediatric dentist here who only 2 yrs ago came under fire for misogynistic and homophobic Facebook posts discovered while running for GA Senate.

    After the old posts were reported, he quickly deleted them and apologized...but the damage had been done. He lost that election, thankfully to another Democrat Jen Jordan, who now sits on the Georgia State Senate.

    Dr. Jaha Howard, who once posted this on Facebook:

    Now sits on the Cobb County School Board.

    I know all of this is local politics in a city none of you live in, but it just reminded me of the Tank and Brandon T. Jackson Discussions we had recently....and just how much of a hold 2000+ year old archaic religious teachings have, not only on the world, but Black people specifically.

    This is also a prime example on how nothing you post on the internet ever really goes away.
