Justin Cohen, a contributor to the Huffington Post and former member of the education policy committee for President Obama's 2008 campaign, stated that his goal for 2017 is to have white people realize that we're all on the "racism spectrum" and that white people need to stop being so "sensitive" about being called racist.
His article, titled "Three New Year’s Resolutions For White America," detailed what he is working towards in the new year.
"Resolution #1: We resolve to stop being so damned sensitive about the word “racism,”" Mr. Cohen writes. "Racism warrants discussion, but White people put too many conditions on the discussion of the phenomenon... We do not have the luxury to orchestrate conversations about racism so that they’re more comfortable for tepid White people."
To this end, all white people need to understand that they are, at least, a little racist against people of color.
"Resolution #2: We resolve to realize that all White people are participating in racism," he writes, saying that people born a certain race automatically have a specific attribute.
"That’s right, I said all. Sorry to burst your bubble, White lady wearing an “Assata Taught Me” t-shirt," Mr. Cohen explains. "The majority of our people sided with the Ku Klux Klan to elect an overt bigot as president... All of us are on the racism spectrum until further notice."
Mr. Cohen's third resolution is to "resolve to organize our people around anti-racist ideas."
He writes, "For centuries, being White in America meant reaping unearned power and advantages, relative to people who are not White. America’s power structure, to an almost comical degree, still reflects that version of Whiteness."
Mr. Cohen concludes, "Anti-racist White people must continue to make racism unacceptable, otherwise the White supremacist vision will continue to build power. And win."
Would that be Robert Byrd, D-WVA, Hillary’s ‘role model’ and Grand Cyclops of the KKK?
And of course, the KKK itself is a creation of Democrats.
George Wallace-Democrat
Bull Connor-Democrat
You could start to detect a pattern here. Democrats have *always* been on the wrong side of civil rights. A Republican freed the slaves. And the Dems seem to still be pretty ticked about it.
It was a Republican who sent the Guard to Little Rock to let the little black children into the school for desegregation. (Eisenhower).
Dems are on the wrong side today. They’re heavily invested in oppressing minorities.
Then along comes Trump with the message that prosperity is available for *everybody*. He’ll show you how.
Intolerable for the Left. He must be stopped. Stomping the life out of a few more generations of minorities is just minor collateral damage to them.
Message from God to Huff:
All humans are on the SIN spectrum.
Fixed it.
For centuries, being white in America usually meant being a dirt farmer barely surviving from year to year with constant hard work, or maybe working long hours for low wages under dangerous conditions in a factory or mine or building a railroad. Most people today, like this idiot, have no idea how hard life was for most people of all races until fairly recently.
Many people of various “races” are racist against other races, as well as people within their own race perceived as different for some reason.
Oh noz. Now what?
Not until black people stop being so sensitive to allegations of the "N" word....
