Is There Official Systemic Racism in the U.S.A. Today?
Only on the Left.
According to a Pew Research Center article published on Jan. 24, 2018, the number of foreign-born African immigrants in the U.S. was 816,000 in 1980. This number almost doubled to 1,447,000 in 1990, almost doubled again to 2,435,000 by the year 2000, and reached 4,173,000 by 2016, over five times what it was in 1980! And according to Pew, these immigrants are highly educated and doing well financially, too.
Since there are still vestiges of tribalism in Africa, these immigrants included people from different national, linguistic, ethnic, racial, cultural, and social backgrounds, and yet they were willingly accepted into this country and seamlessly integrated into our culture. The monotonic, exponential increase of African migrants to the U.S.A. over the last 40 years demonstrates that American culture is based on freedom, ability, and merit, not race.
In the December 2018 issue of Gallup World Poll it was reported that more than 750 million adults worldwide wanted to permanently migrate if they had the opportunity to do so. At the top of the list of the most desired destinations of the potential migrants stands the U.S.A. – 158 million want to come here, over four times greater than the second country on this list (Canada, with only 47 million).
Equally important, Gallup reported on March 24, 2021 that 42 million people living south of Texas want to migrate to the U.S.A. Clearly, more potential migrants from around the world would rather come and live in the U.S. by far than anywhere else. Internationally, the U.S.A. is perceived to be wide open to immigrants with talent and ability, not on anything else.
