'I feel sick and angry that we're here 60 years later': Sir Paul McCartney reflects on The Beatles' refusal to play segregated show in 1964... as he laments ongoing racial tensions

I'm glad to see Paul weighing in on this subject. It's been 154 years since the Civil War ended with the loss going to the Confederates and the freedom and liberation of slavery. Yet in all too many places, that Confederate flag is still flown in the US, monuments to men who fought to keep slaves, are still standing near civic buildings and the KKK are active. It is like a weed whose roots never get fully pulled up.
So proud of all of the people showing up to protest for the Black Lives Matter movement. Thinking we may have some momentum in this movement. The President, whose most senior advisor has had over 900 emails exposing him as a White Nationalist, turned over. The military and police are supporting the Constitutional right to protest and overnight, a 1.7 mile fence has been erected.

Bravo to Paul for saying it plainly and strongly, not giving one of those mealy-mouthed statements we've seen from so many celebs and corporations.
