Read other letters about this article
Dear Salon writers,
I have been away a bit, and was looking forward
to checking in here and see what people are discussing.
I'm dismayed to find the flamers destroying this forum.
Salon staff, could you discuss with us what steps you are considering to deal with this problem?
Could we find a way to corral certain writers or certain types of letters into one pen, so to speak? so the rest of us could continue an interesting exchange of diverse opinions
marked by consideration, civility, and honest desire for true dialogue?
Thank you.

ps: Re the subject, Michelle was intelligent, inspiring, disciplined, warm-hearted and articulate, in my opinion.
She thus inspired such a desperate push-back by racists.
