Since the founding of our country the persecution of black people has been a national character defect. But we’ve pushed it back before & we’ll will push it back again. The vast majority of Americans are horrified by it and will rise to the challenge of casting it from our midst

We need to do more than push it back. We need to honestly confront the history with a form of truth and reconciliation.

America has never pushed back racism! And the majority of white Americans are racists and benefit from our nations extensive history of black American oppression.

I don't believe the "vast majority" of Americans are anti racist.

Human slavery & oppression goes back a long way. A nation founded on seizure is destined to be seized.
