What are you even saying? There is no statement in your statement.
There is.
Were anti-lynching laws a mistake?
No.
Was assertive anti-racist education a mistake?
Some of it - may be.
It sounds to me as if you advocate capitulation.
No, I advocate not hurting the definitely noble cause by actions clearly harmful. Force-feeding people something is a sure way to make them resist.
Anti-racist education shouldn’t be busy with throwing something people don’t believe into their faces. That absolutely never works, and the reason some other people want to do that is to assert dominance. They don’t have dominance to assert, they are bitches.
Knowledge of genetics (school biology level) is by itself a lot of what’s needed to discard racism as an approach.
Knowledge of history, economics and why social mobility matters are by themselves a lot of what’s needed to discard segregation as an approach.
Empathy too. Mark Twain and Harriet Beecher Stowe are in your school curriculum, are they not?
So then the statement in your statement seems to be racism should have no social consequences?
You really haven’t thought this through.
Racism bypasses rational thought, it’s a visceral reaction for those steeped in it. People operating at that level are immune to reason in the moment.
Maybe they can change over time? Sure give those sincerely seeking the grace they need. But power must be applied to preserve decent social standards.
I see the wisdom in speaking softly most times. It’s a tough pill to swallow but those soft words must be backed up by strength. There are behaviors and attitudes that simply cannot be allowed to prosper.
They can chase you, idiot! Racists and other kinds of such are always the majority of people actually caring to apply force.
They are now assraping your country because they were chased under a rock for a generation. That’s the whole bloody reason!
