"First, I'd say there's no such thing as not racist. There's racist and anti-racist," Kendi said. "Racist ideas suggest that there's something wrong or right, superior or inferior about a particular group. It suggests there's something inherently normal about white Americans, that Americans are white and whites are Americans. And his idea suggests that somehow people of color are not American, and that's deeply racist."

If you need some historian to explain why something is racist, it’s probably not racist.

the day twitter exploded | covington catholic controversy - students cleared by new video...

New Video Exonerates Covington Catholic Students

Here’s how the controversy (the biggest so far of 2019) was described by someone on Twitter:

“A group of students wearing MAGA hats were chanting their high school chant so this man comes over with his drum and walks over to them. He gets in one students face and bangs him drum. It was recorded and has turned into “white students harass Native American banging his drum” when all the kid is did was stand there while this man went looking for trouble. The left has doxxed the student and are calling for him to be expelled. Of course they are sending him very tolerant death threats. That’s the gist of it.”

Notice at 1:39 the students are told “You white people, go back to Europe where you came from.”

2:30 Student asks, “What did we do?” Native American: “You’re being white. That’s all you need to do.”

Rep. Ilhan Omar deletes tweet attacking Covington students, after backlash
Fox News ^ | Jan 23, 2019 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., has apparently deleted an overnight tweet going after Covington Catholic students anew, after facing a social media backlash for her comments.

She wrote: “The boys were protesting a woman’s right to choose & yelled ‘it’s not rape if you enjoy it’ ... They were taunting 5 Black men before they surrounded Phillips and led racist chants ... Sandmann’s family hired a right wing PR firm to write his non-apology.”


Racist beyotch who supported a racist man who said to these boys “Go back to Europe” and “being white is enough (reason)”

I was born a poor white racist...

It took anti-racist education indoctrination to get me woke.

I thought the term “colored person” was a no-no these days. That it’s racist. But you can call them a “person of color” instead? It’s the same thing!

Yea ok. This is not a historian. This is a BLM militant with a destroy America agenda who happens to be wearing a suit.

I have not heard how the remark that you can come back and show us how you fixed things works out in the you’re a racist meme. As I recall, Jefferson did not tell the blacks that they could come back from Africa, but he also did not insist that they go.
