Carl Braden received 15 years in jail for buying a house for a returning Black Veteran

Why? Teh Freedumb! Teh Freedumb for white communties to conspire to interfere with sales and commerce with Black People.

The fact that he did jail time is just outrageous. I think this is the thing that was special in the US and continues to be a thing is the punitive consequences for not upholding segregation. Institutions that criminalizes and punishes for not believing in racial segregation— continues to exist, in loud silence.
