I am mostly retired now but back then I had to do battle with the Minneapolistan Department of Civil rights a few times.

They don’t treat us honkies very well.

If I was still in the game and had some fight left I would tell them I identify as a black lesbian and see what happens.

I am surprised I haven’t seen any big lawsuits from companies doing exactly that. I believe they would win and this whole minority preference crap would be gone.

AP is being very racist by doing that.

They can still refer to Italian-Americans, German-Americans, Norwegian-Americans, etc.

But they won’t distinguish between Liberian-Americans, Gambian-Americans, Nigerian-Americans, Zimbabwean-Americans, Haitian-Americans, etc. They will just look at skin color and lump them all into the Black category. Super racist.

So, they are going to fight ‘systemic racism’ by being systemically racist..................

Slight modification for more accuracy:

So, they are going to moronically fight nonexistent ‘systemic racism’ by actually being systemically racist..................

Got it!
