We can capitalize “White” despite what these racist bootlickers at the Asspress do.

I would have been okay with it if they had said:

“We’re only going to capitalize Black because they’re clearly just better than everyone else at sports.”

AP has been an evil organization for quite some time. Now they show it openly.

Most notably, people who are Black have strong historical and cultural commonalities, even if they are from different parts of the world

Isn't that true of all races? Have these jerks even been out of their Black holes for centuries?

Wow. So the AP is racist. What is new? I’m sorry but just because you are black does not make you special. Period!

"Most notably, people who are Black have strong historical and cultural commonalities . . . . "

Well, I'm glad they are therefore rejecting the concepts of "whiteness" and "white privilege" which posit a strong historical and cultural commonality of white people. Oh, wait . . .

So, blacks around the world have a shared cultural experience, but White Judeo-Christian people around the world, sharing the Indo-European language group, have no shared cultural experience.

Got it.

They need to do the right thing to correct centuries of racial injustice and adopt white as the preferred spelling.
