It's amazing how much of our lives are revolve around a racist precept. Everything we do has been set up to preserve white superiority. I was indoctrinated to believe the system was set up to be fair, to provide an equal opportunity for all. Wow, was I wrong!
I am blown away by how we have internalized that Threat = Black Man and Black Man = Threat. It makes logical sense based on the constructs society has formed, but I never quite understood it so directly. We have a huge amount of work to do
It's shameful that this was all intentionally instituted by our founding fathers and remains firmly in place even today. It kind of makes me ashamed to be born white - a condition that none of us control no matter what race we are.
