On July 29, 1910, white mobs marched through the southeastern part of Anderson County and the northeastern portion of Houston County in East Texas, slaughtering African Americans at will. Hundreds perished, thousands fled and the state of Texas turned a blind eye. As black families ran for their lives, the white perpetrators covered their tracks. The story was covered up for over a century, and, today, the victims are still piled up in unmarked mass graves. Here is the story of the Slocum Massacre in riveting detail-as told by its victims.

In the bizarro, comic book version of the Lone Star State, Red numbskulls run things, and "Captain Texas"--Greg Abbott--is their current leader. He inspires no one, but, for a smarmy, vacuous climber, he's hell on wheels. And Abbott follows on the heels of Rick Perry and George W. Bush. Together they comprise a successive triumvirate of blind ambition and mindless greed. They loaded the wrong wagons from the beginning, and we'll be paying for their lies and general ineptitude for a long time to come.
