Racism exists throughout the world and always will. It will never die. Human nature won't allow it to.....and neither will the media and politicians do not allow it to at least diminish.
This country has spent 622,000 lives to end slavery in 1865. It has passed numerous laws to promote integration and equality during my lifetime (since 1948). It has elected a black man president for two terms. And yet, the racial divide today is as prevalent as it's ever been.
The divisive tactics of politicians and media go a long way in alienating us from one another. It seems to me that is a primary intention.
That division entails every aspect of life...along racial, ethnic, gender, age, socioeconomic and regional lines. Politicians and their exploitation of the media are widening our differences and stirring a very dangerous pot.
No political party should boast of having the monopoly for opposing racism. It's not....or should not be....a liberal vs conservation issue.
Maybe if we recognized the Holocaust as the ultimate lesson to be learned about hatred and bigotry...and then, learned from it...it would be a better world. But since when has anyone learned a lesson from history ?
I have been around it my whole life since I was a kid and I am 51 almost 52. I have seen White people that are racists, blacks that are racists, Guatemalens hate Mexicans and vice versa, Chinese hate Japanese and vice versa, mexicans hate blacks and vice versa, I have witnessed all that and more. It exists in all Nationalities and Cultures but the MSM in America wants everyone to believe that hate only exists in Whites. Thats what pisses me off more than anything, not a racist bone in my body nor anyone that I know personally. As for me I am like MLK, I judge people on the content of their Character not the Color of their skin.
I know or have met many a white man that I would never invite into my home, I have met many other people of color that have been invited into my home and others I would not. None of it was based on the color of their skin, it all had to do with what type of person they are. Hell I have many relatives I would not trust in my home. Some I would have to frisk when they left.
There are many good and bad people of all colors but the Lefts agenda is to paint all Whites as Racists is beyond disgraceful and I hope people are getting tired of it but thats what I thought when Trump won the election that people were finally tired of this Toxic Rhetoric just to divide us but here we are in 2019 and its only gotten worse. Hopefully people are getting wise to the rise and now fully see where all the hate is truly coming from, our own damn sorry excuses for Politicians thats who. Disgraceful.
