America is so systematically racist that…
…non-white members of the US Congress have doubled since 2001 and for the fifth time in a row the US Congress is the most racially and ethnically diverse in history. And that Americans voted a Black president to two terms.
That Black Americans are the most wealthy black community in the world.
That Black Americans are in charge of towns, cities, states, police departments across America That police departments across America are majority minority.
That Black American culture, from movies to music, is deep in every pore of American culture
That the number of Black basketball players in the NBA has gone from zero to 80% in three generations; Baseball players, zero to 60%. And earn an average of $US 7 million per year.
That some of the most admired and beloved Americans include: Barack and Michelle, Oprah, Morgan, Tiger, Serena. And Le Bron James a billionaire basketballer who complains that America is nothing, has never been anything, will never be, anything but systemically racist, that police rise from their beds thinking “I’m gonna kill me a black man today”.
So that’s how racist America is But for me to point this out is racist.
The counter to the Le Bron narrative is that America was brought into being with fine ideals. That it often failed to meet those ideals. That it fought a Civil War to end slavery and that killed 600,000 Americans. And that it continues to try to “perfect the Union”.
But to BLM — the Movement, the Organization with a website, not the sentiment, that Black lives matter — everything is race. They mock King's dream of “the content of character” being more important than the colour of skin. If America buys that narrative it will come to regret it, surely.
