Harlan Crow: There’s nothing wrong with my friendship with Clarence Thomas
for his first interview in response to coverage that he says is “factually incorrect and being written with a strong political agenda.“I have to set the record straight.”
“It’s worth noting that he and Justice Thomas were given detailed, written questions in advance of our stories. Thomas declined to respond. Crow’s answers were included in full. He questioned none of the facts we reported.”was better than that. And I believe they’ve been a part of it this week,” he said. “That makes me sad.”Crow was in Washington, D.C., and talking with executives of the National Center for Policy Analysis.
Harlan Crow sits for an interview with Cheryl Hall of The Dallas Morning News at his home on Sunday, April 16, 2023, in Dallas.“Every single relationship — a baby’s relationship to his mom — has some kind of reciprocity,“ he said. “I assumed his mother owned the home,” Crow said. “His life story is an amazing American life story: born into deep poverty. Father gone. Mother — the lady whom we’re talking about — really not able to do a lot to help raise her two sons. Ultimately raised by his grandparents, who were illiterate. Growing up in Jim Crow Georgia.
“I just don’t want to be famous. I want to go to Schlotzsky’s or Arby’s, those are my kinds of places, and be a regular person.”“I think America is one of the greatest things that’s happened in world history. Here we are governing ourselves, or trying to govern ourselves,” Crow said. “There are other times in world history in which that’s happened, but nothing like this. I love the American experiment in self-governance. It’s actually kind of shaky right now. I’m worried about it right now.
“I decided that I like American historical manuscripts and books that relate to American history. That became a real passion for me most of my life, and I built a pretty substantial library. I collect pretty much anything that relates to American history. “So it’s pretty comprehensive in science, literature, politics, government, and elements of government. It’s a big collection. But it’s many thousands of documents, and books.”“We have a small number of things here that are about bad guys.
“It really, really bothers me that — what I’m going to call yellow journalism — has decided to say that I like some of that stuff. That’s exactly the opposite of what the truth is.”“My mom was on a ship that was sunk by Germans during World War II. If you try to kill my mom, I don’t like you. I mean, that’s reasonably obvious. And so the idea that I could have sympathy for Nazism is insane.
