……Mr. Kendi….I think I have everything he’s written…..now, the article I found was written by Fabiola Cineas…..Ibram’s interview is enlightening….and this is the part that touched me the most….
Fabiola Cineas: The first question I have for you is a broad one, and it’s intentionally broad. I’m curious to see where you go with it. We’re a year out from the start of the national reckoning on race. So, what is your assessment of where we are, especially as it relates to racism?
Ibram X. Kendi: So, I think my assessment is largely historical. And what I mean by that is happening now a year later, a year after people all over the country were demonstrating against police violence and racism, a year after upwards of three-fourths of Americans, according to one poll, were stating that racism not only exist but it was a big problem. A year after that, we’re experiencing something similar to what the abolitionists experienced 200 or so years ago. We’re experiencing what those who were trying to reconstruct the post-Civil War South were experiencing, what civil rights activists experienced 60 and 70 years ago. And what I mean by that is really, America’s racial history is a story of racist power, instituting racist policies and practices that lead to racial inequities and injustice, and then the victims of those injustices and inequities and their allies organizing and resisting those policies and practices, only to be then told by a racist power that racism isn’t the problem, that those people resisting racism are the real problem…..after reading that….what is it you “STILL” do not understand….is it the problem?……..???????
GEORGIA REMOVES OVER 100,000 NAMES FROM STATE’S VOTER REGISTRATION POLLS…..If your vote is so important….then why are so many states dead set on making sure it isn’t important?….you think they care?….ol’ Governor Brian Kemp even amped up this nonsense a notch….he blocked Juneteenth….from becoming a paid holiday for state employees….tellin’ ya…..the REICH-publicans got a plan….and they’re going to make sure it happens….by any means necessary!…..one podcaster is calling the party and their followers….The “Barstool” Party.
MACY GRAY SAYS “IT’S TIME” FOR A NEW AMERICAN FLAG THAT REPRESENTS “ALL OF US”…..I agree….South Africa and many other countries did it….we’re not 1776 anymore…..even though many of you thinking going back to….1619 is a good idea….put Betsy Ross old idea in a museum….where we all can drop by and visit it….or you can even keep the soon to be old one…fly it if you want to……if it ever comes to a point where we do need a new image….other than the one we have….the red….for the blood….the white….for the controllers….and blue for the majority of society’s sadness…..cool….and yes, I am happy about….
JUNETEENTH….But don’t forget…..the 13th Amendment still exists….and that’s going to be one hell of a….not really, but it is a slavery loophole to get rid of…..and some people or businesses need to make a living…..in the least expensive ways….and lengthy prison incarceration sentencing in private prisons is a good idea….and they can do what you’re not supposed to do….and do it anyway, because you can technically do it…..it’s been found out that many judges handed out long prison sentences in exchange for cash payments…to fulfill the prisons owners greed……via cheap labor…..if you haven’t read #13….you should…..and….
TEXAS GOVERNOR GREG ABBOTT SIGNS INTO LAW “CRITICAL RACE THEORY” BILL LIMITING TEACHING CURRENT EVENTS RELATED TO RACE…..I’m starting to believe…that one star on the Texas flag….is part of a rating system…..passing laws allowing people to carry weapons without a permit…..the GOV letting people die when a winter storm took out the power grid….and he sat on his ass instead of solving the issue quicker….even one elected official….the Ted guy….decided to take his family on a Mexican vacation and blame the reason for the trip on his kids…..instead of helping those in need….I mean the ones who elected him into the office he’s serving…..that state definitely deserves….a “one star” rating.
