Nice article but I cannot help but feel this is trap for my white ass to say something stupid! Keep on writing Mudede. I may not always agree, but I always read!
interesting that truckers are no longer the white, bearded, beer-drinking stereotype. it's those details that change so subtly -- then, all of a sudden, "this isn't the america i knew!" haha
WOW! I DID NOT KNOW AFRICAN TRUCKERS TRAVELED THROUGH EASTERN WASHINGTON, MONTANA AND IDAHO ON A REGULAR BASIS. ALTHOUGH MY FATHER - AN INDEPENDENT TRUCKER - TRAVELED THERE, MOST OF HIS TIME IN THE WEST WAS SPENT IN COLORADO AND CALIFORNIA. WASHINGTON STATE HAS THE COUNTRY BELIEVING THE ONLY "COLOREDS" [WHICH ARE FEW] ARE IN SEATTLE.
