Title: Clarence Thomas: Northern Liberal elites treated me worse than Southern whites

American society is more "conscious" of race than it was in the segregated south and during the early period of the civil rights struggle, U.S. Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas told a college audience on Tuesday, Yahoo News reported.

Thomas told students at Palm Beach Atlantic University in West Palm Beach, Fla., that he was saddened that America was more race conscious than it was in that earlier era.

He spoke of growing up as a Catholic and African American in Savannah, Ga., "the first black kid" to attend his all white school.  "Rarely did the issue of race come up," Thomas said.

"Now, name a day it doesn't come up. Differences in race, differences in sex, somebody doesn't look at you right, somebody says something. Everybody is sensitive. If I had been as sensitive as that in the 1960s, I'd still be in Savannah. Every person in this room has endured a slight; every person. Somebody has said something that has hurt their feelings or did something to them – left them out."

The university is an interdenominational Christian faith-based school offering liberal arts and select professional studies.

Thomas said the shabbiest treatment he'd received was not from southern whites.

"The worst I have been treated was by northern liberal elites. The absolute worst I have ever been treated," said Thomas. "The worst things that have been done to me, the worst things that have been said about me — by northern liberal elites — not by the people of Savannah, Georgia."

Blacks and our illegal visitors from the southern border are way more racist than the average American. We've gotten over it. Them, not so much!

Well, we might not want to let Southern liberals off the hook just yet. (NRO) (http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/370888/clarence-thomas-wrong-quin-hillyer)

Alvin A. Holmes (D-AL) House of Representatives seems to have issues with who Justice Thomas married.  Or, more precisely, the lack of melanin found in her skin.

Last time a leftist told me black people can't be racist, I replied ok they are bigots then. Shut him up real quick, then a black cop jumped out of the bushes, applauded and high fives me!
