Elephant in the Room: Falsely accusing black men of rape is an old tactic, especially in the South
That's not to say that every black man accused of sexual assault is innocent or that every accusation is false. Certainly that's not the case.
But we can't consider the Justin Fairfax accusation, especially with its flimsy support and curious timing, in a vacuum without understanding the history and dynamic of innocent black men being taken down and destroyed because a woman pointed at him and said "he did it."
I can't help but wonder if this accusation against Fairfax is being brought forward at this time with an assumption that some people - especially those who dismiss and defend proven past racist behavior as no big deal that can be overcome by just not doing it again - would be receptive to an uncorroborated sexual assault charge when leveled at a black man.
The thread's miles and miles long, but one looks in vain for the MrsCorpio primitive's reaction, especially since this is something right up his alley. In fact, one's surprised the bravenak primitive commented before he did.

The first accuser, Vanessa Tyson is black, an ardent Democrat, and lives in the Claremont, CA area, which - to be fair to EffieBlack - is in southern California. I've not seen pictures of the second accuser, Meredith Watson. If she, too, is black ........
