Nixon's Last Tapes
It's dirty work but someone's got to do it. You may have heard that the final trove of Nixon's infamous tapes were released today at the Nixon Library, with very little descriptive to help researchers. Well, the Atlantic Wire plunged in, and offers this partial report. They say there's more on Watergate but they stick pretty much to Nixon in his classic Jew-hating, and black-mocking mode. So we've got him damning an aide's "Jewish soul" and saying blacks will never run Jamaica well for a 100 or 1000 years. And those little black kids don't like him much (for some reason). Surely more to come. I should not that I was the very first researcher to use the library, even before it opened, doing some digging for my Nixon-Douglas book.
