According to the make-believe world of the left, we are experiencing a great moment in American racial history. For the first time, the story goes, more whites than ever are coming to realize how racist America is, how racist cops are and how systemically racist everything in America is. Only now do many Americans understand just how racist Uncle Ben, Aunt Jemima, Ulysses Grant, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, "whitening" agents, meritocracy, Western culture, Christianity, jailing blacks and the NFL are. The bestselling book in America is about alleged "white fragility" -- the term for any rational response to the irrational charge that all whites are racist.

Half a century? So - - that's 1970 - - the era of Shaft and Superfly and Pam Grier.
I'd say blacks were better off then - - those were some good movies with good actors.

BLM is making millions from companies. Have you heard that the money has been given to ANY person of color? Where is that money going? Has it helped 1 person in the inner city? That money could be used for reparations

Here is a short video asking whites and then blacks in Harlem wether police are needed. Whites want police GONE and blacks want police and pray for them. White guilt is the culprit. https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-asked-about-abolishing-police-white-and-black-new-yorkers-have-very-different-responses?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=benshapiro

The greatest crime perpetrated against the African American community occurred about 50 years ago. The race baiting charlatans drunk on the power they achieved after the signing of the civil rights act started to develop radical Black Power ideology into the concept of institutional racism which over the decades morphed into critical race theory. To accomplish this they stole American blacks history and totally rewrote it. In the late 1960's Black Americans had, in under 100 years gone from the most horrific condition of chattel slavery to the point where they were being accepted into society as a whole, they had fought for their rights and won against draconian political corruption (led by the left) to starting to build a viable middle class, to integrate into mainstream politics, communities and business'. It is an enthralling American tale, something impossible in any other nation on the planet. They were proud of this, and real Americans were beginning to be proud of it as well. It wasn't all roses and unicorns, but the corner had been turned.
The the race hucksters stole that triumphant history and turned it into a tale of never ending victim hood, instead of vilifying the past and embracing the future they convinced the black community that the past can never be left behind, that there was no future for them, they destroyed the black family and embraced the concept that anything "white" was evil, including family, God, education, a work ethic and civil society all in their quest for power and control.
That destruction of their triumphant history is the single biggest crime ever perpetrated upon the African American community.

More like 75. Are we racists when we state a truth or the truth? Nope, maybe plain old truthful.

Where ya been Dennis? That setback happened during the Obama first term. This recent activity, no doubt being fomented by Obama behind the scenes, has just been more pot stirring.

"Back a half-century"; how about back to Africa, where they would be much happier.

Blacks, like whites and yellows and reds and whatever else, are reasonable people. They are not a bloc as individuals...they tend to form one as The Community, which leads to much beyond anger and resentment - it leads to self-segregation from general society and far too much poverty. Blacks are squandering their precious human resources, tossing aside the future Ben Carsons for the next generation of those chained to The Community, demanding reform rather than being the reform.
From education to law enforcement, from government to virtually every field outside of athletics and entertainment - which have historically been the province of the lower classes for riches and advancement - The Community refuses its duty to itself to encourage being smart. It fails to enforce elsewhere common behavioral standards, leading to murder and mayhem far out of proportion to its size. And it's all called "Racism".
Those who wise up find the level of white racism to be less than black racism, which is never discussed - rather called "pride" or "power" when it's all a charade, a screen to the truth no one will approach honestly.
This recent spate of Community violence will not set Blacks back. It will set others further back as mainstream American culture once again reduces to a new lowest common denominator.

Who could watch the rampaging on the streets and say 'oh yeah, I need to help these people?' The problem is that we let the BLM movement grow, under false pretenses, and now the bleeding hearts are giving them money, the Soros types too, the corporations are giving them protection money., so it has become a money making deal, too big to stop.

Obola did set race relations back and divided this country. We can thank him for the hate spewing and disrespect of LEO's. That's what community organizers do; especially if they are paid to do it. He can peddle whatever, but he and his wife hate this country and fleeced US for all they could and still at it. If he had a motto it while in office it would have been "If you're black, I got your back" Today it's CYA and rake in millions because he was president.
