Antifa is the most public, in-your-face element of the communist Left's decades-long effort to vilify America as a bastion of racism and "white supremacy." Normal people know that this characterization of the United States is simply not true. We have been world leaders in promoting racial harmony and reconciliation and have bent over backwards to aid in the advancement of minorities. Today, for example, blacks, Hispanics, and women have the lowest unemployment rates in U.S. history. Furthermore, certain minority groups are eligible for racial preferences and set-asides unavailable to whites and even those minorities — for example, Asians — who excel.
The poorest people in America are better off than people in most other nations. A recent study found that when you include the myriad welfare programs available to Americans, the bottom 20 percent of income-earners in the U.S. are better off materially than everyone in most of the nations of Europe. Another study found that the bottom 10 percent in the U.S. do better than the top 10 percent in Russia and that our nation's poor do better than virtually everyone in India and better than 85 percent of those living in China.
The Left media ignore all this. They would have you believe we are constantly on the cusp of reverting to the days of Jim Crow. Slavery in America ended with the Civil War, which cost more American lives than any other war in U.S. history. With the complete dismantling of postwar discriminatory practices by 1964, and continual efforts to boost the affluence of minorities, talk of slavery and reparations should be a thing of the distant past, but a race-hustling industry has kept it alive by misinforming successive generations of students and indoctrinating minorities to hate everything American, while (mostly white) leftists constantly agitate to sow and inflame racial division.

Pfffttttt! You already know the response. Same type people that doctored the Trump phone transcript rewrote this “white” wash as well. Like nuzzlin’ joe said. “We choose truth over facts.” But thanks for the post. :-)

And once again posting without reading only shows you ignorance
But thanks for the post
Good read
Excellent article, thanks for posting. I wouldn’t take any commitment on the part of the Left toward the issue of slavery very seriously - “the issue is never the issue, the issue is the Revolution.” Or, if it stirs people up, go with it. That the state of scholarship on the topic is so poor is glaring evidence of this. And the notion that the U.S. is uniquely guilty of anything is based largely on the fact that the U.S. is uniquely susceptible to having its collective pockets picked while being distracted by a passionate guilt trip.
Many years ago, before Whoopie went so radical, she said she had visited Africa and seen for herself so was thankful her ancestors had been brought over. Said she’s not going back to that homeland.
Ah... Just who was selling the slaves to the evil white man?
Could it be some African tribe that raided another village and those not killed were sold to anyone willing to buy?
The loveless, ungrateful, proud, self-serving, envy-bitten father of Leftism is Cain. Seeing himself as perfect, thus in no need of repentance, he preferred the devil to his true Father who he resented for what he took to be God’s favor toward the good-goody Abel. Desiring revenge he took the advice of the serpent and bludgeoned his brother to death. Cain’s modern progeny out did Cain when they (Marxist Communists) slaughtered in excess of 150,000,000 image bearers of God and his Progressive brethren murdered over 60,000,000 unborn and just born image bearers.
