Why is “black” in upper case while white is lower case?

Because everyone knows white is diminutive, inferior.

Gee, where have you been? Officially, it's from the AP Style Guide which says that blacks are a people, like Hispanics, and thus the capitalization, while white is just a skin color. In reality, it's meant to push the self-esteem of black people to find an area where they can feel superior to white people. Thus capitalizing "black" is very woke.

the monolithic FakeMSM has followed an AP style edict on capitalization of Black only...that’s why.

somehow it needs to be challenged...and stopped.

Very good observation indicating the reporter’s bias.
