One good start would be to remove all questions pertaining to “race” on all government forms. I NEVER answer them unless I check the “other” block and there is a space in which I can write “human.”
During the last census a woman called to ask the race of each person in our household and was rather flustered when I refused to give her an answer.
Move MLK Day to Juneteenth.
MLK & MLK day is no different than anything else about race. Generally speaking blacks & whites do not view either in the same way.
I could care less about the color of ones skin, but I do size someone up based on their race. Only because of what I have experienced in my life. If that make me a racist, so be it. I call it evolutionary intuition.
Let's not try to crowd them around a weekend, either. Let us just celebrate them when they happened - as we used to do in a more sane, honorable, and rational America!
It was silly making Martin Luther King's birthday a holiday in the heat of a "guilty" moment. It was done strictly for Political Correctness. King is a second rater compared to either Washington or Lincoln. Why should we no longer celebrate their birthdays and instead lump them into some phony construct like President's Day? That makes about as much sense as having a "Congress Day" or "Court Day".
We lost something historically valuable when we decided to bend to the wishes of the Politically Correct crowd and abandon historical meaning for racial politics. But isn't that the way it always is?
