Not that I am so naive to think that racism is dead or simply a liberal agenda  but it would be nice to move past this already.
They can have fun in jail having an American History X moment.

I would like to think the majority ARE past it.
There is always a lunatic fringe. Always has been, always will be.
The best way I know of to fight racism, as a lily white man, is to confront
other whites when they express it alone with me. You know the type, the
last black person leaves the room, and some racism bullshit gets said. I
call them out on it immediately.
Anyone who wants to kill/harm others due to their religion, orientation, language,
or whatever has an implacable enemy in me. That includes defending
conservatives. Just cause I disagree with most of what they say, doesn't mean
I don't value it.
