There are enough of us (White AND Black) who understand HOW we "got Here," & that--in the end--Race is NOT very relevant, that we WILL maintain a "National Identity" STRONGER THAN the Racist Rants of potential Demagogues!
So far, "AMERICAN" still trumps "race!"
Doc
I am not convinced of that. If this thing starts falling apart, ethnicity may become more important than we may realize.
Well, I really don't think an honest racist is better than a dishonest one.
There are "Forces" who would promote a "Race War" in our Culture; through two turbulent centuries, we have grown a Powerful, "Mixed-Race" Culture which has VASTLY EXCEEDED the "sum of its parts!"
WE are the Future of the "Human Race!!"------"RACE NEUTRAL"-----
If we "Go to the Stars," "Race" is IRRELEVANT!!
WHO CARES what "Color" HUMAN first stands on Mars??
Doc
IF is a very big word. We may just go further into the sewer.
Thanks so much for this!!
It is now time for white America to realize that they are part of this same battle. The words racist, bigot, and hatemonger, coming from embittered followers of demagogues, mean nothing.
(This is dedicated to my friends who underwent attack with similar epithets and retaliation on a forum that unfortunately is starting to sprout utilizers of similar character assassination techniques as the Rainbow/SHOVE Coalition and the demagogues who, despite their obvious bias towards liberty, remain in the Washington "in-crowd"...)
His men 'kept the peace' by ransacking the countryside and its people. Intimidation was an understatement. It is reported that people were found with genitals, noses, livers, and eyes missing and prisoners were forced to bludgeon each other to death with sledgehammers.
In 1972 Amin announced God visited him in a dream and told him to expel Uganda's Indian and Pakistani populations, who owned almost all of Uganda's businesses. At first, only non-Ugandan citizens were forced to leave, but eventually those with citizenship were also expelled. About 50,000 Indians and Pakistanis fled, their homes and businesses allocated to Ugandans favoured by Amin.
And of Rhodesia/Zimbabwe.
White culture, and people, are passing. And the world will get a dark age that will not lift for a long, long time. The only ones I feel sorry for are the children of today who will come of age during that awful time.
I am not sure how long this mess will carry on anyway. Many people think that we don't have much time left. We will see.
Oh.....well, yeah.
Go figure!

Doc, this is not a flamingo dance. And the music is not playing.
True, but the Pat's won the Superbowl----there is MAJICK in the air!!
The Human Race has outlived Generations of "Highly Qualified ("Academically & Spiritually")" "Doomsayers!"
THAT we HAVE SURVIVED is the BEST criterion for judging our ability to survive the "assault of the Non-White Racists!"
"AMERICA" has--so far--proven to be Greater Than the "Sum of it's Parts."
Like the Football "Patriots," we usually ignore the "Noise" around us, & "Get the Job Done!"
AS it NOW STANDS, AMERICANS will "Go to the Stars," & the "Race" of our "Representatives to the Stars" will be IRRELEVANT!
Doc
Most whites would lose their employment INSTANTLY if they were charged with the R word, however unfounded and invalid the charge. No white could dare criticize any activity, not even felonies, not even rape or murder, on the part of any nonwhite for fear of being tarred with this word.
And now I will be tarred with the word for having written this post.
