The Left continues to gaslight the unwary with the claim that systemic racism exists in the United States.
In reality the United States is the least racist nation in all of human history, and the only nation who ever sacrificed the sons of one race in war to free the sons of another race. (N.B.: The British actions against the Near East and Far East to extinguish the international slave trade were no less noble and brave, but did not rise to the level of open war.)
Racism properly so called is the political philosophy holding one race innately and irredeemably inferior to another, so that laws and customs promoting the humiliation, subjugation, slavery or extermination of that race are permitted, perhaps obligatory.
Does racism still exist in America?
To answer, we need but observe three points.
(1) The supply is insufficient for the demand. There is not enough racism in America to support the Race-hustle Industry.
Because of the lack of real racism, innocent and ordinary activities, such as hiring men on the basis of merit, which inevitably must lead to a numerical disparity in any field, will be condemned as racist. (Unless the field is athletics, where a racial disparity favoring the black race over the whites or yellows is unadmitted and unnoticed.)
Because of the lack of real racism, it must be manufactured. Each and every race-hate crime reported in the national news in a decade has been a hoax. See for example, Jussie Smollett, Covington Catholic, the Duke lacrosse team, plus a dozen or so “noose” hoaxes, starting with Bubba Wallace, and, most famous of all, the overdose of George Floyd.
(2) If institutions, such as colleges, allow one race to have rooms, dormitories, associations, cafeterias, fraternities, graduation ceremonies, and so on, segregated to exclude another race, but this second race may not even ask for the same privilege, the race allowed to segregate the other is the privileged race.
(3) In culture where one race is privileged over another, members of the under-privileged race will attempt to pass for members of the privileged race, in order to avail themselves of the privileges thereof.
On this point, one can determine which race is privileged by seeing who is attempting to pass for whom. See, for example, Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Rachel Dolezal.
If a mulatto attempts to pass as White, it is because he perceives Whiteness to afford him some privilege or advantage. If he attempts to pass as Black, it is because he perceives privilege or advantage to rest with that race. See, for example, one Barry Soetoro, later Barack Hussein Obama.
Laws and customs meant to establish the inferiority of one race to another do exist, albeit at the moment only to the degree of humiliating that race, and awarding special privileges to another in terms of academic admission, hiring quotas, and government contract preferences.
One race is allowed to express race pride, but another is not, nor can they form clubs, groups, or associations meant to promote and protect their race.
For example, there is no Nation Association for the Advancement of Uncolored People.
