Wyatt Tee Walker, a former aide to Martin Luther King Jr., and other African Americans have finally recognized Thomas for what he is, but where were they during the confirmation hearings? Many prominent blacks were well aware that Thomas was unfit to follow in Thurgood Marshall's footsteps; very few had the temerity to come out and say it.
