So far, the conversation about the upcoming Boston Red Sox visit to Donald Trump’s White House has centered around the people of color who are skipping the event. The manager Alex Cora, a critic of the Trump administration’s inexcusable treatment of Puerto Rico amid the devastation of Hurricane Maria in 2017, cited his home island’s continuing troubles as his reason for opting out.

"Why Don’t White Athletes Understand What’s Wrong With Trump?"

Because they weren't reared in a monolithic culture that imbues its children with xenophobia and persecution complex.

Despite him
Improving the economy for all
Telling minorities explicitly he wants to uplift them
Never displaying racism
Even having lovely dates of color

It’s because he wants to deport illegals of color
Who for all their grifting and nonallegiance still
share much of the same ethnicity and unAmerican culture
and solidarity must be shown

Never mind the intrinsic unfairness
Whitey/“the man” must always pay and pay

What party did Andrew JOhnson belong to, Jemelle?
