Trump is a symptom of a 400 year old disease. [View all]
The orange moron is out of power. And for most of the 330 million Americans, the country is ready, past ready, except for those living in a past that never really existed.
These white supremacist Trumpers mourn for a non-existent America that only existed for rich white people. What Trumpers see as history is actually the real cancel culture of white historians who created a myth of strong, white, male heroes.
And this true cancel culture ignores that brutal fact that the United States was founded on slavery and genocide, and these white, male, Founding Fathers, (never mothers), accepted the slavery and genocide, while pretending to believe that "all men are created equal".
Until we know the true history, until we know and admit to the fact of white supremacy, we cannot heal. The infection of white supremacy is still raging. We can see it in every murder by police of a black person. We can see it in every effort to prevent non-whites from voting. We can see it in the disparities of wealth, of life expectancy, and in job opportunities.
The question for us all is, can we admit to the problem, and do we have the courage to solve the problem?
