Racism will end when behavior of Africans becomes civilized. People don’t leave their hoods because of color.

Blacks are the most racist demographic since the Civil War and there’s no sign of improvement. They declared war on us 20 years ago and we still haven’t admitted it.

So Shelly, tell us how well received you’ve been received by the black community, esp black females, for having biracial kids? Why, just the other night I biracial female said she wasn’t accepted by “the black girls” becoz to them “She was white”

How come black racism isn’t mentioned? Oh btw, EVERY generation thinks optimistically about race when it is young and naive, and has little “skin in the game” no pun intended But wait until certain issues rear their ugly head and sure enough, they’ll find out

I think you nailed it right there.

Honestly, I believe a large portion of the AA community would welcome a race war. This despite the wisdom of great Americans like Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Dr. Ben Carson, and Sheriff David Clarke.

Black America desperately needs a moment of clarity ... but I don’t see this happening as long as there’s so much money to be made by promoting fear and hatred.

No. Racism as used by the people who would get published by NPR is disagreement with the Anointed Ones on anything at all.

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.

All by herself...

What a load of tap dancing by the writer....it doesn’t state unequivocally that Shelly’s husband is still around. It also doesn’t differentiate between ‘starting a family’ and getting and staying married.

Is it still ‘starting’ a family after the first child is born? The second? The third?

As for power, we’ve had a black president ie no higher position of power. He race baited at every opportunity. So much for improvement.

If it's ever going to change, it will be because of Trump being in the White House. This is a historical opportunity, that frankly would not happen with any other politician.

The ‘90s and early 2000s were “a post-racial fantasy time” in Richton Park, Summer said. “Being firmly in the middle of the Obama era – it [was] a moment of progress. It was validating.”

Gal doesn’t know her history, that was Clinton and Bush era. Hussein didn’t show up til 2009.

Affirmative Action baby at University of Chicago? I thought they disavowed that behavior

Let me know when the Fields family moves to the Congo.

Then we’ll know who the real racists are.

“As a high schooler, being surrounded by a mix of black, white, and multiracial classmates, it was possible for her to believe in a more uplifting future. After arriving at the University of Chicago, where less than five percent of the student body was black, her perspective changed. She started learning about things like race theory in her classes.”

They are quite upfront about the brainwash.

Racism will die when the whites have been bred out of existence. The libs are well on their way.

Racism and bigotry will never end......It's hard wired human behavior to think that your family and heritage is better than others regardless of whatever race or nationality you may be.........That's just natural.

What isn't natural is the race baiters and profiteers who make a living out of racist claims and foment the hostilities between the races.

As long as government forms ask what race people identify with, then the government will always use the subject of race as a tool to divide the people.

Like the man said. It’s ok to be critical of inferior subcultures that do not muster the wherewith all to function as worthwhile members of American society.

Such critical thought is not racist

I would state it more as our heritage is better for us. Others have their own heritage and should be able to embrace it as well. That's when people can truly live in harmony, but not when people try to force us to abandon our heritage.
