The Atlantic, a once-great magazine, has determined that the total eclipse of the sun due to occur on Monday will fail to affect enough black people.
The Atlantic’s very lengthy essay on the failure of the eclipse to occur where a sufficient number of black people reside is entitled “American Blackout.” It clocks in at a remarkable 4,544 words and does not appear to be satire.
Concerning “the Great American Eclipse,” Brooklyn Law School professor Alice Ristroph writes in the rapidly deteriorating magazine, “there live almost no black people” “along most of its path.”
The Atlantic’s longwinded law professor assures readers that “implicit bias of the solar system” is “presumably” not the cause of eclipse’s failure to affect enough black people.
“Still, an eclipse chaser is always tempted to believe that the skies are relaying a message.”
Oregon, where the eclipse will first appear in the continental United States, “is almost entirely white.” “There are very few black Oregonians, and this is not an accident.” It’s totally on purpose in 2017, The Atlantic claims, because the Pacific Northwest state had a “racial exclusion” clause in its original 1857 constitution.
The Atlantic notes that the eclipse will then move toward Wyoming and Idaho, which also have very low populations of black people. (RELATED: Now America’s National Parks Are Racist)
After an extensive discourse criticizing the U.S. Census, The Atlantic tells readers that the eclipse will travel through Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Missouri. In this section of its essay, The Atlantic manages to drop the names of Bruce Springsteen, Jesse James, Eminem, Chelsea Manning, Michael Brown and Howard Zinn (a shallow socialist writer panned even by most serious socialists).

Anyhow, the last time we had a full eclipse over the United States only was in 1776. The Founders looked at it as a good sign. Could it be another rebirth? Pray for our Republic.

What nonsense!
ROFL.
Well then, that makes G-d a racist because He controls all celestial happenings.
Rarely do we see such stupidity on FR...or anywhere else.

I’m not a stupid, moronic leftist...but I play one on TV.

In the good old days SNL would have done a great skit on this nonsense.

Life lesson: NATURE IS RACIST!
The Sun is racist because it delights in turning white people into brown or red people.
And make them hurt at the same time!
Just when I thought the left couldn’t get more crazy.
We need to stop the eclipses. In this country everyone is equal, and only a minority of folks will be in the viewing area. It’s not fair.
To help stop Solar Eclipses, I am establishing an ECLIPSE CREDIT. Each credit is $1000. If you buy 10 or more, you could be a major factor in stopping these eclipses. PM me and I’ll give you a bank account to send your checks to.
On behalf of all those who won’t be able to simply look up in the air and see an ECLIPSE, I Thank you.
Look around. Watch CNN. Or read the NY TIMES.
It is pretty stupid out there and the subject of this article is no worse than most of the headlines I read lately.
words fail to express how stupid this woman is.
Trump’s fault. He wanted only the white folk to see it.
Not sure but I think way more white people won’t see it than black people who won’t see it. I’m one of those white peoples.
