Interesting……America is the land of opportunity…..some people need a kick in the ARSE

Nearly 80% of white Republicans say America has done enough to help Black people

A new Axios-Ipsos poll has revealed that White Republicans believe enough has been done for Black Americans in the fight against racism. The results come in just one year after the death of George Floyd, reported by Mediaite.

If we have have laws making racial discrimination illegal, and equal opportunity laws, etc... and these laws are enforced, what else do we need to do? Or do people think we can somehow end all racism, bigotry, prejudism?

it's the carrot in front of the donkey.....the donkey never gets the carrot....and just keep walking toward it

....the unobtainable

they all know that.....that's why they keep it going and going and going

and then try to hide class....disguised as racism....and force people to treat all black people the same

we will never get rid of racism the way they define it and use it

Probably not many, but why is that even a consideration, even though advertisers appear to be heavily pushing it? The Census Bureau says that only about 2.8% of households are mixed race, and that's not just Black & White. People tend to stick with their own race for a mate.

Not as much as in the past...interracial marriage is increasing in America with some marrying at much higher rates outside of their race...

It’s not anyone’s job to help people of a specific race
