We passed civil rights legislation and were moving toward civil rights 2.0... a society that would judge people only on their demonstrated character and not on any racial or other group identity. When asked by Don Lemon what he thought we should do to improve race relations in this country, his guest Morgan Freeman said "stop talking about it. stop calling me and you and black man... as we are just a man."
The problems in the black community were caused by decades of failed liberal and economic policies that gutted American working class opportunity at the very time blacks were poised to capture much more the middle class. Trapped in a cycle of poverty and expected government help, this provided political opportunity for the Democrats. But then it also provided a political opportunity for opposition to the Democrats to explain how those policies were perpetuating minority misery.
Hence the desperation to move toward toxic identity politics and wokeism. Its the racist cops and racist white males. It is the Republicans and their fascism. See, look there. Don't look at us. Don't look at the Democrat political establishment comprised of educated elites who are pursuing their path to even greater wealth by supporting the corporate oligarchs, Wall Street and the WEF globalists... who bought up the corporate media and all work together in a giant elite money-hording cabal to brainwash the electorate to keep supporting them despite the family destruction they cause.
It does appear that this is all unraveling. Thank God. The people are waking up and rejecting the junk of the elites. And the minority voter is starting to understand that it isn't racism or misogynism that is the problem... but classism. The elite educated professional class wealthy against everyone else.
Blacks today are being held back by the upper class that claims to be their salvation... not racism.
