Opinion: Paula Deen's words echo South's racist past - CNN.com
Deen, a televangelist of butter, let slip in a court deposition that she had used a degrading racial term to describe African-Americans. Imagine the surprise of almost no one in Dixie. Deen came of age in a country that was just beginning to institute the equality it had been bragging about for almost two centuries. If her childhood was like most Southern baby boomers, she was raised on the lexicon of discrimination, and probably used it.http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/26/opinion/moore-paula-deen/index.html?hpt=hp_bn7
