I no longer Have Hope in White America
The Washington Post ^ | June 29, 2018 | Karen Attiah

Posted on 06/30/2018 3:45:57 PM PDT by Jim Noble

I have reached a regrettable conclusion in the era of Trump. I no longer have hope in white America...

Those of us whose identities have made us the direct targets of the Trump administration’s hateful rhetoric and discriminatory policies are told to not stoop to President Trump’s level. We are then fed cherry-picked quotes from black luminaries, — or a favorite from Michelle Obama’s convention speech: “When they go low, we go high.”...

As for going high? Trump rose to power in no small part due to his promises to bury the political accomplishments of the first black president...

Those of us who knew we were under threat from Trump have, since Election Day 2016, been told that America’s institutions will protect us from Trumpism. Congress would be a check. The responsibility of the office of the presidency would humble him. None of this has happened. This week, the Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision decided to ignore the president’s Islamophobic rhetoric and upheld his ban on travelers from certain majority-Muslim countries, legally sanctioning Trump’s anti-Muslim animus into official policy. Now that Justice Anthony Kennedy has announced his retirement, Trump can shape the court even more in his own image for decades to come....

All of this leads to the question of hope. For those who have been working to fight for civil rights for people of all creeds, colors, genders and nationalities, it is a very dark time. What do we do?...

But we will continue to struggle, to write, to resist, to confront, to march and to dissent, even if it is done in the darkness. The struggles of our forebears demand nothing less.

It's OK Karen. The feeling is mutual.

The 1954-2018 period is drawing to a close. Hard to know what comes next - except it's going to be very different.

They really are pushing the "white genocide" thing.

I have confidence that will fail, but they sore can do a lot of damage on the way.

There's no such thing as "White America," Karen. Just America.

You filthy racist.

They are really enjoying wallowing in the “I’m so oppressed” feeling. Nothing has actually happened to any of them. But they’re sobbing into their lattes while they check Instagram and Twitter. Then Uber to the protest, yell and tantrum in perfect safety, then meet up afterward with fellow victims for drinks. Sob into their Margaritas and then Uber home to feed the dog, and watch Netflix, and sob into their soft, downy pillows...

I long ago ceased to believe anything a libtard says, Karen, nor do I care.

Allow me to retort, Karen;

"Where we go one, we go all."

“working in the dark not knowing if anything I do will ever make a difference.”

In the big picture, nothing the race pimps have ever done will make a difference because they have no connection with reality.

Karen, know your history, BJ Clinton was the “first black President”.

Words from the rapist himself.

Yeah, you got that right. If you study Eisenhower he was a 50’s style rino.

Note to Karen:

Sista Please! If you don’t have hope in White America then move to Jamaica, Haiti, Venezuela, China, Gabon, Chad, or Mali.

You’re complaining about something you have no control over and never will. You don’t like Whites, fine! Move elsewhere so you don’t have to deal with them.

Problem solved!
