I know lots of free spending whites. Thanks to centuries of rigging, the average white person can afford to make more mistakes than the average black person can. This is not an equal color blind society nor is its economy. I agree with MrT10000001 on this; grab and earn all that you can do legally, and get the…

None of the big three monotheistic religions ever issued a global edict specifically condemning race based chattel slavery, jim crow or apartheid, but they all had plenty to say about nearly everything else. That alone undermines any alleged moral standing that they are supposed to have.

I “stepped away” many years ago when I realized that few black churches had any sort of freedom or liberation agenda, and that most of the white churches like most religious institutions everywhere on earth, were allies and supporters of the system, as well as the eager and constant apologists for the unjust status…

Grown men don’t test the limits of civility by publicly mocking or ridiculing other people’s spouses. That includes comedians...Grown men exercise restraint when it comes to engaging in violence. That includes actors with global celebrity...A grown up nation would have used the kid who shot up a BLM demonstration and…

Yet another typical example of the never ending racist and anti-black BS which continues to permeate every aspect of life from cradle to grave in “the land of the free...” Change it from a plaque representing the anti-black terrorist organization to one supporting some form of anti-semitism and watch how fast the very…

Access to abortion effects white women as much as it does women of any other group. If the well-being and safety and independence of white women are all expendable, I wouldn’t bet the farm on the longevity of the voting rights act or other so called civil rights which are seen as being “black things.”

To Keith Magee: Thank for saying this! It needs to be said over and over again because far too many people have acquired the habit of using “universalism” to justify making nonsensical claims that black Americans are “just immigrants who had to struggle just like everyone else” who came running to the Americas, and…

Sad, but true. I can recount numerous incidents of what passes for policing in the US which should have been met with similar outrage by the publi, but were dismissed, or even justified by large segments of the very same public and media which are now in full (and justified) cry over the massacre at Uvalde. A lot of pe…

I agree with you 100%. Only America believes that adding even more armed and completely unaccountable people to the mix is a solution of some kind.

LOL!!

I like green butts and I cannot lie...

You say “staggeringly enormous challenge” I say insurmountable death traps. Those moons are so distorted by their proximity to the gravity and radiation of Jupiter that they make Mars look like the Cote Azur.

While people fantasize about colonizing a relentlessly hostile and uninhabitable world far away we cannot overcome racism or our addiction to war and violence on planet earth. We cannot make globalism work for everyone or, even apparently maintain the automatic and self regulating life support system of our blue…

True, but to be fair and honest even those of us who are not fans of Trump, Abbott, or the NRA and who are not residents of that unfortunate community “own” a piece of this and of every other similar atrocity because we have failed to prevail over the cult of the gunfighter nation and by doing so, have also failed to…

Yep. We as a nation do damn near everything in our power to ensure that everything is in place so that these atrocities can and will continue to occur, and then we act shocked and hapless at the predictable outcome.

I think that is is going to be a very, very long time before it’s safe to start bellowing “Back the Blue!” “Back the Badge!” or “Blue Lives Matter!” every time the cops screw up and cost innocent lives, or, when they intentionally act out against black people.

This is a society which normalized lynching to the degree that it became a social event and grisly postcards of the atrocities were widely circulated. This is the society which took 100 years and 200 attempts to outlaw this atrocity, and, even then the measure didn’t have the 100% support that measures such as issuing …

White supremacy in countless forms has been mainstream thought and belief for many millions of people in the west for several hundred years. And they have made it a uniquely murderous global phenomenon which has outlived two world wars...Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln Churchill and many other mainstream white…

Jim crow lasted for 100 years. It permeated ALL levels and all institutions of American society in ALL sections and regions of the country no matter which of the two interchangeable parties was taking its turn in the White House or holding positions as elected officials such as senators, congressmen, and…

Racism never takes time off. I hope that the new cold war doesn’t provide the white west with another opportunity to justify enabling or ignoring racism the way it did with jim crow, apartheid, and colonialism during the last one. Dixie, Rhodesia, apartheid South Africa, and numerous colonial states and south American…
