Many in our nation like to live in the past, for political advantage.

nwarikoo Oh, how blissfully sweet for those who think this history was closed. Reopened? LivingWithItEveryDay

All this about perception.

👍

OK Citizens.. time to look thru ALL the yearbooks of EVERY VA legislator. The Beat keeps on goin'

I once wore a t-shit with a black guy whom I really respected when I was twenty years old...I'm sorry. I was in college if that's exculpatory enough.

the picture or the media has stirred the furor? Anyone with a 3rd grade education or better knows the answer.

So the killing of babies after birth doesn’t bother you but a 35yr old photo does.... hmm 🤔

Look up the left's hero Margarat Sanger and her views on race. Also, read up on slavery in the US and how it the Democrats were and still are the party of slavery. They have not changed who and what they are.

“Reopened”?!?! That’s BS, that “ book” was NEVER shelved 🤦🏻‍♀️ Why is it that the GOP and this administration gets a “ mention”...page gets turned; but if an idiot is DEM all hell breaks loose🤷🏻‍♀️holdalltosamestandards

It is a possibility that this pic was released by the Democrats, to sacrifice one of their own, and possibly cause a distraction. Also they're getting mad about a pic but not about the infanticide thing

These two white girls agree.

Curious how this came to light after he failed them on the abortion front. So weird.

Bigotry in American Medicine? How about bigotry in the Democrat Party. The party that created the KKK and has a statue of Robert Byrd

The USA killer police union , Killer Doctors and medics has Murdered more AfricanAmericans than Jews murdered by Nazi German's HolocaustMemorial . Ralph Northam's racist photos in his medical yearbook is an eloquent testimony to this programmed Genocide .....

Bigotry in American medicine? These people are democrat politicians.

What? I guess if one looks hard enough they could find racism in Chocolate Chip ice cream and Chips Ahoy! Here is a twofer!

He was there last night dressed up. My bad that was ben carson

Here, here! Is anybody r-e-a-l-l-y Interested in knowing who exactly located the infamous yearbook page and secured media attention that has created this 'political furor'?

Wonder if he's a Democrat

So it's time to start talking about the outward racism of nursing text books from 2014. And that's just the start.

Exposing leftist hypocrisy one yearbook photo at a time.

And also do you remember Robert Downy Jr's performance in the war comedy,or Ted Samson at a awards show as Whoopie Golderg broke out in laughter, or the countless other celebrities that have put on a black face PUBLICALLY that now VIRTUE SIGNAL on this issue? HYPOCRACY is rampant

You know an AP story like this is about a Democrat, when the party affiliation isn’t mentioned in the tweet.

And the racist is still governor, DemocRatsAreRacist

We're listening! Keep educating us!

What is taking Coonman so long to leave. We don't want a Grand Wizard as gov of VA . There is no need to wait this out, he will be rightly so known as a racist the rest of his life.

Trump is worse !!!

Uhm...has it reopened the debate about the LONGER history of Democrats and bigotry yet?

He should step down.

Guess there's to much money in racism for 'news' media to let it die.

How sad is it that we have conditioned so many minorities to break at the first sign of something distasteful.

Good article. Our biases are so deep, I am not sure we know they are there, so keep up the education, keep pointing out how we can do better and keep holding our representatives accountable for them when they surface.

Nice of you, AP, to take killing babies off his shoulders.

Oh for crissake! Get over it ... blacks say and do stupid things too ...

I agree it's bad but this is a reach

no mention of his abortion views, msm is more concerned with this bs than killing infants

Fixed it for you: The racist 1984 photo on Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam's yearbook page has stirred a national political furor and reopened the long history of bigotry in the Democrat Party.

You didn't really need the 'n medicine.'

Racism is dead! Sounds like the AP has reopened the long history of bigotry to help keep us divided. That’s the media’s job, you know.

Or how Democrats and the Left demonize Republicans but they’re just as guilty but the media doesn’t do their job and gives them a pass.

The photo was taken in 1984. The subject in the picture is a Democrat. Yet, yesterday, I saw some talking head blame the entire thing on POTUS Trump. Idiots.

Exactly. 99% members of NationalMedAssn Know. That’s the sickest part. Pic was in MedSchool YB? Mental State of Doctors! Shame DNC

No it does not; news is trying to make a mountain from 40 years ago into something that was then and not now

GOP OppositionResearch Arsenal: 'MissionAccomplished.' GOP: Amirite? I am. The real question is: Realizing GOP is weaponizing skeletons, has TheDemCoalition sic'd a posse of tech-savvy sleuths to unearth what is undoubtedly a BIGGER trove of dirt on SITTING GOPs & candidates?

When the story first broke, I didn't know he was a VMI graduate. VMI has a long history of racism.

I'm much more concerned about his support for infanticide than a picture of him in blackface from the 80s.

Long history of bigotry in American medicine, or Long history of bigotry in the Democratic Party? Let’s call it what it really is

Meanwhile back in Richmond, The same Democrats that said every woman should b believed are crickets on the Fairfax matter hum

You sure that it hasn’t to do with the fact that he as a physician has no problem performing infanticide AND he’s a racist?

Are we really going to hold everyone accountable for mistakes made in youth, over 30 years ago? Even felons are getting their voting rights back after serving their terms.

Ralph should resign after jimmykimmel

Back in 1984 you didnt have bitcoin technology. Even credit cards were not in existence with online shopping. see below as that is 666.

You mean in the Democratic Party.

(D) Governor

That long history being 'reopened' was never closed in the first place.

There is something fundamentally wrong with the people in society in the USA if they have such a massive emotionally reaction to RalphNortham yearbook, but ZERO reaction to his supporting late term and full term infanticide/euthanasia?

Dems being dems and projecting on us per usual.

I am not surprised

then perhaps the experiment hasn't worked and we should try something else.

You mean Democrat Virginia Gov...
