Racism is a lot like car alarms. We've all grown so accustom to false car alarms, that we never pay attention to them going off any more. Sure, cars are still broken into with real alarms sounding, but the noise of false alarms has drowned them out.
Your gubbement wants you to think its all about race and not about what its doing.
Good point. Divide and conquer. And the sheep keep playing into it.

I despise thugs of all color.

Black people are the same they have always been.
Please show proof where white people don't like black people. Way to generalize there! Did you ever think that maybe, just maybe most of us judge a person based on their character, as opposed to their skin color?

Slavery, Jim Crow, Housing Segregation, KKK, Reagonomics, the "Southern Strategy."

Martin Luther King was a man whose voiced principles could be respected. The people who advocated for them where I lived in the Sixties were intelligent, educated and could be respected. And those are the people I learned from about race relations.
And most of their complaints were valid and relevant. We were a nation stepping up to growth and responsibility (although painfully and some reluctantly.)
What this mess is is only a destructive reflection of a degraded society. It looks and sounds like a demand for exceptional, not equal, treatment without responsibility.
We aren't asked to love; we are asked to not mistreat a person of color or violate their human rights. That's what the government asks us to do. Most of us do that.

Well, my friend I can only go by the world I live in which is today, and in the present. I wasn't around during slavery, and nor were any of my ancestors. Jim Crow was also before my time. There is no housing segregation today. The KKK is irrelevant today, nor do they speak for me, or any other white folks I know. I did a little research on "Southern Strategy" and it is nothing but propaganda, and partisan hackery to keep the masses divided.
Like I said, I live in the present. I have no desire to discriminate, or keep you or anyone else down. Or do you honestly think us white folks actually get up in the morning and say "you know what? I just can't wait to keep a black person down today!" Please.
....so I'm guessing a Cancer awareness advocate should change their message to "all diseases matter."
If you are spending your time guessing at things, then I can see how you might arrive at such a silly conclusion and thereby totally missing the point about cancer awareness. I recommend some common sense and education. Both of these take some work but I'm convinced that you have it in you to there one day.
I wish I didn't have to care, but "kill whitey" is the order of the day from D.C., Hollywood, and academia, and blacks have amply demonstrated they are feral pack animals eager to carry that out.
