Bev at War

I would have missed this one but for Seth Effron’s Quick Clips: “Perdue declares ‘war’ against school resegregation”(The Wilmington Journal).
The Journal reported:
Declaring that the state was ”in a war,” Governor Beverly Perdue told members of the NC Legislative Black Caucus last weekend that she, as a citizen, fully supported the efforts of NC NAACP President Rev. William Barber in challenging the resegregation of public schools across the state. Even if that ”war” ultimately ends up in the US Supreme Court.
”North Carolina is in a war,” the governor declared last Friday during the opening night banquet of the 24th Annual NC Legislative Black Caucus Foundation’s Education Scholarship Weekend at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel and Convention Center in the Research Triangle Park
”If it takes going to the Supreme Court of this great country from Wayne County and for Wake County , and for other counties in North Carolina
A bold statement.
But the Governor has dug herself into trouble before by making bold promises she couldn’t keep. One was to protect the classroom from budgets. Then not to let death-row inmates go free.
How will she keep this promise?
