5. They way we never were - idiots remembering a time that never existed.

They grew up in exclusionary enclaves where everyone looked and thought like them.

Shielded from the realities of the country and what life was like for everyone else.

Part of the dominant culture where all the faces on TV and the big screen were white faces or white faces using black-face to mock and denigrate others.

Or where there were actual black faces those black faces were treated as buffoons or played roles befitting their expected place - maids, butlers, and slaves.

They want that America back - where their white skin affords them all the rights and protections America offers and everyone else knows their place and acts accordingly.
