"Very Fine People on Both Sides"

HERE'S a suggestion ..watch FINDING YOUR ROOTS ON PBS...(real people discovering their ancestry
and tracing their history as far back as the 1700's).....WHITE SUPREMACY shows up thru out the lineage,much to the chagrin of the individual being interviewed. There has ALWAYS been a superiority quality thru out the centuries .

The result is a chronicle covering hundreds of years of history, which feels as contemporary as an Instagram post. Kendi and his fellow academics dig into subjects such as: the invention of Blackness (lumping together Black people from different areas in Africa as one race inferior to lighter skinned people; elevating working class white people to stifle any solidarity with Black people); the myth of assimilation (giving Black people the false idea that, if they just comport themselves in ways which make white people comfortable, they can achieve equality); and the myth of Black hypersexuality (justifying the rape of Black women and the lynching of Black men).

"when u know better,u do better".......perhaps seeing the macro is a major problem

All cultures find out that assimilation helps them out in America. Germans learned to speak English, just like the Irish and Mexicans.
Same with Jews, Chinese, and Italians. This is no big secret. All these groups had been discriminated in the past by WASP culture but they persevered. They kept some of their old culture but also joined the melting pot that is America.

Ironically the new Anarcho-Libertarian leader of Argentina wants to solve their inflation issues by dumping their own currency and replacing it with the USD like Liberia did decades ago.

Guess what happens to a country that doesn't have a common culturte of any kind and doesn't have any pride in the country in which they live? The left's ability to destroy our untity is one of theiir most dangerous weapons. All these illegals pouring over our border are brand new victims the left can use to further divide us and to refill their voter base with people who haven't felt the downfall of our economy yet. I predict (97% certain) that if the Denocrat wins the presidency (it won't be Biden), the first thing on the list will be giveing the poor illegals a clear path to the voting booth.

The Atlantic, one of HA's favorite liberal opinion journals wants to ban "Thanksgiving". They think there is nothing to be thankful for anymore.

(Shake my head) These writers don't know history. Now, more than ever, there is so much for minorities and women to be thankful for. Stop obsessing over the sins off one hundred years ago. There has never been a better time to be an American. Stop whining and start bring thankful for these improvements.

Now, more than ever, there is so much for minorities and women to be thankful for.(PER Fred)
OMG....this coming from a white male,whose gender has ALL the privileges......TRULY out of touch..

So you think it is worse for African Americans and women under President Biden now than it was for them under President Woodrow Wilson? Do you think it was better for women in the 70's in Colorado when they had to have a man cosign if they wanted a bank account?

Or do you know it is better for minorities and women now? Denver Post just had an article today that a majority of prosecutors in the Denver DA office are now women. Women are the majority of students in colleges right now too.

Could provide some examples of the unequal hardships that are presently built into our system? What is holding back women and minorities in 2023 that is a product of an unfair system? Please don't link to someone's opinion that is not based on hard data that can be directly linked to these alleged injustices.

So many businesses have quotas and hiring goals that do not include white men... qualifications that put race and gender before experience and skillset. Maybe I'm wrong and there isn't an identity-first method of hiring but I'm pretty sure I'm correct.
