Like there isn’t any hatred between other races, cultures, gangs and religions.

I’d like to see them forced to provide equal time due to intellectual bigotry as an public accommodation, or be defunded, myself.

Problem is, Democrat racists hand their biases off to future generations. There’s no chance for it to die off.

I don’t run into pure Republican racists, well almost never. When I do, I explain that I don’t see things that way. I may discuss it with them. I then move away. I don’t like racism and I try not to live my life with racist opinions.

I don’t consider it racist to address something in real world terms when contemporary news reveals a serious problem in the midst of an ethnic group.

For instance, some folks think it’s racist to joke about the Amish, when crimes are committed and no race is provided. I don’t, because we have seen this type of thing play out over and over and over... no race is given, and then we have to investigate and almost 100% of the time it’s a person of a minority group the media didn’t want to attribute the violence to.

Another example was the abduction and beating of the mentally impaired kid. One news organization actually said Whites did the abducting and beating of a Black kid. To me, that was terribly racist, done for cause. Those making the Amish comment were exonerated. It WAS the members of a minority group who did this to a White child.

Don’t know but I do know that the world will be a better place when racists like Lewis, Waters, Jackson Lee, Sharpton and Jackson all finally croak and give America a break.

Racism is part of man's sinful nature, so it will never completely end, not during our earthly lives. Just as there will always be malicious gossipers, cheaters, and narcissists, there will always be racists -- black, white and asian.

Right now there are more black racists who hate white people, than vice versa. Despite all the Black Lives Matter propaganda.

“”’ She says she’s raised her four daughters, who are biracial, to see people of all races as equal, just as her parents raised her. “””

I guarantee her children list themselves as black on any questionnaire and not white so they get all goodies that go along with that.

Library of Alexandria
Parthenon
Coliseum
Hanging Gardens/Babylon
Wall of China
ETC ad infinitum !!!

Racist racist racist !!!!

I grew up and went to schools where there were about 20 black kids in my age group in classes with me the entire time. They lived directly next door, had friends that came over at least twice a week to play basketball in our back yard, or played kick the can in the summer evenings. My dad carpooled with the State President of the NAACP, and they raised money together for youth sports.

My 7 year old brother one day yells at a group of black kids playing football in the field about 100 yds away from home...N...er n...er. As my friends and I watch these kids come charging towards us in total anger, I stood there, as these people were my friends and I was going to face them today or the next. They came up to me, ready to stomp me into mud, or so I thought. I stood my ground, told the oldest..who was in my class every year BTW. I apologize, that was my little brother...I was about 10 years old, to put some perspective on this event. He said, I understand, but you should tell your Father. I went home, told Dad. Brother got his ass whooped. The friend of mine from school, his dad was the NAACP President. My Friend, he became the President of the same State office in his 50’s.

Long story short..... I can remember the day in High School, not when the girls had the “special assembly”. No, the day they had a “special assembly” for minorities only. These young boys and ladies came out of that assembly pushing and shoving anyone that came into their immediate proximity. They grab another friend of mine and pushed him to the ground and wanted to know why he had told one of the other black boys that they should leave his sister alone a week or so earlier. That is an event I WILL NEVER FORGET. All of those years of being compatriots, friends etc. All ended in just a few minutes of “pot stirring” by “educators”.

THAT is the state of race relations. All of the years of being friends, of being color blind and shedding the “racism of the past” was gone. With one presentation of hate filled material, and unity was destroyed. It was not the white people of that Navy town in Washington State that caused it. It was the hatred of the John Lewis, Jessie, and Sharptons. Those who said they were going to heal us all, divided us on purpose..

If they don’t think there are new young racists coming along, it’s because they’re living in their own little bubble. They have nothing to fear from the old racists. It’s the new racists, the young whites who’ve been cut out from their own country, who know nothing OTHER than everybody getting a break except whitey, those are the racists they really need to fear.

Don’t forget the show “Roots” back in ‘79 which enraged my black co-workers and emboldened them to steal from me.

“...when old bigots die...”

No. After John Lewis, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Sheila Jackson Lee, etc. are gone, there will still be racists.

No doubt because those goodies are plainly institutional racism, IMO. The ironic part is this approach just validates the old KKK/Demo "one drop rule" as regards whether someone belongs to one race or another.

I think people are missing the real point of this article which is whether the death of a generation of white people would be a good thing.

I didn’t read the article, I am guessing NPR is saying racism will end when Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Maxine Waters and Shela Jackson Lee assume room temperature.
