It's about ****ing time!
Is there somewhere in the context of the announcement refers to race? I missed it, or at the very least don't get it. |

Man, I miss that place. Our church used to have all nighters there for the yutes. Ice skating, bowling, arcade games all night long.
Good times...

I bet this place won't have all the crimes and shootings most that most places in liberal KC have. What say you George?

There are plenty of bad things about Kansas, but in terms of shaming Johnson County specifically?

One of the exhibits is from an old neon motor lodge sign on Metcalf (US 69) called "White Haven." Johnson County -especially Overland Park and Olathe- were two of the great "white flight" explosive areas in the 1950's and 1960's. It was a rush to the suburbs to get out of the city. Happened here and in other major cities across America during that time frame.
And I'm glad they were able to re-purpose the building to make it something useful. Personally, I love museums and KC history, so I plan to go later in the summer when it's open. I think I'll take a bag lunch of ham on white bread with mayo, a twinkie and a carton of milk! I hope this book is available in the gift shop: https://www.amazon.com/History-White.../dp/0399511938 |

I love being a white guy. Except in prison.
