Okay I’m back………

So I’m supposed to take seriously that despite ALL of the blatantly discriminatory actions taken by most White Europeans who arrived here in 1492 – and continued by their decedents, at all ALL levels of American life TO THIS DAY – somehow they feel they are the ones being discriminated against!?!

Yeah right. They know darn well they’re full of it. But just as they’ve done throughout American history -blame anything and anyone BUT THEMSELVES for their own failures in life, when they’ve been given EVERY opportunity to succeed.

Makes them a natural constituency for Trump.

Yes DJ you are on a role with the racism discussions. Keep it up and thank you for talking about this. Like you said I don’t know either how white people think they are discriminated against. They have everything. But maybe that is their problem. They are so used to having everything they feel entitled so if something doesn’t go their way they think it is discrimination. But they don’t know about real discrimination. They need to walk in a black persons shoes for one day to learn how it really is. All they are being is spoiled brats who don’t like seeing control slip away.

DJ, I am SO glad you’re doing more posts about “Race” and “Racism” -the myths, flat out LIES, Truths and Facts – in America, past and present.

I am reminded of this quote by the late, great Daniel Patrick Moynihan -U.S. Senator from New York

“Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.”

The history of “Race” and systemic White racism, in America, is Factually documented, despite many desperate attempts to “White-wash” (pun intended) that history.

My opinion: I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – I do not believe that all White Americans TODAY are “racist.” However, I do believe that most White Americans (say 55-60%) indeed ARE racists. I believe, based on observing their behaviors over the years, they tell the biggest LIES, routinely Scapegoat to excuse their Failures in life, and above all they’ve have been the main perpetrators of this nation’s most reprehensible offenses against “Others” going all the way back to the founding of this country.

Fact: At least 5 Million Indigenous Americans were present when Columbus arrived here. The largest population, Native American Indians, inhabited THIS country eons before any Anglo Europeans stepped foot on this land and set about annihilating the Indians in order to STEAL their land.

Fact: On Sept. 8, 2000, the head of the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) formally apologized for the engaging in the “ethnic cleansing” of Western Indian tribes.

Fact: Also present among the native/indigenous people when Columbus arrived were people of African heritage.
