The other night, I was with my primary partner Tony in the emergency room (he had wretched vertigo). A white man, around sixty or so, trim for the most part, got up and went to the television that was provided in the upper corner of the room. He slowly pressed the channel button until he landed on Fox News.
“Noooo,” I murmured. Tony opened his eyes.
The man pressed the volume up button.
“Noooooooooo,” I whined.
The man went back to his seat, Sean Hannity now tootling happily across the room.
“Nooooooo,” I said sadly.
“That was like watching the history of oppression in action,” Tony said, and closed his eyes again.
