(7,006 posts)Lines between Race, Privilege and the lack of decorum on both, have become a strange twist in where minorities are feeling second and worst places in the back of the line or back of the bus, yet again.
It is truly a crying shame especially when nine short years ago, this Country elected an African-American President and some believed by doing so, America had erased its long racist past. Nothing can be further from the truth and the election (or backlash -- which is the proper term) of Drump is the result.
The result of those with selected Race and Privilege demanding their "assumed rightful place" in the front of the line -- which is a lie manifested in the chains of America's highly racist history to all who are a minority.
Today, another Black-American Man Family, Alton Sterling, had to hear another so-called Attorney General that his Life Did Not Matter as his family could not even receive the decently of a Jury Trail.
Reading the article you posted, what comes up in a sad feeling of how no matter the race of those who are defined by this Racist Nation as a minority, many of the feelings and daily struggles -- are the same. Especially, in today troubled times.
This Sometimes poster with miss your posts, insights, opinions, and strength.
Just Remember, what is wrong with this Nation is not you -- instead, it is deeply rooted in History and sadly, this Nation's soul.
