That was maddening reading all of that again. He thought I said kids were asked to leave a shop, it was a grown man doing his job for fucks sake!
And just think of all the incidents that have happened since the first post of this thread. I just started reading "How to be an antiracist" by Ibram Kendi. A black man who says that he himself is racist. He talks about the difference of individual racism verses systemic racism. And how it is important to call out both, but especially important to recognize and call out systemic racism. He says we can all be racist at some point. We can be "not a racist" one day and have a racist thought the next. It doesn't mean we are bad or good-but what is important is looking at the disparity in our society.
So, thats okay Maggot, go ahead and go back to sleep.
