Whoa, that's insane.

This is exactly what I meant when I said "It seems like there's still some political tension there"...the freaking mayor has a serious axe to grind and tries to push this narrative that Charlottesville is this inherently evil, racist, white-supremacist place. I'm sure that in her mind, Charlottesville is just a big plantation where the rich whites keep the blacks enslaved.

Doesn't give you a lot of confidence when the mayor is trying to push this "white vs. black" agenda.

Racial and political tensions are high in Charlottesville -- it is still a small southern town. And although Cville is pretty liberal, thanks to UVA, the surrounding areas are NOT.

How did you wind up with these two finalists, almost on the opposite sides of the continent?
