systemic racism

During a Joe Biden campaign livestream on Monday about black Americans and coronavirus, it was only a matter of minutes before racism allegations were aired.

Democrat 2020 hopeful Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) called for a change in the education system during the Democrat debate Wednesday to fix the school-to-prison pipeline.

A black Ohio state representative proposed an amendment to the state’s “Heartbeat” abortion ban that would have exempted black women from the law because their “history includes rape and forced birth imposed on enslaved women and black women after slavery.”

The Broward County, Florida, school leniency program that was likely the inspiration for the Obama administration’s plan to shrink the “school to prison pipeline” is part of a larger Obama-era plan to force school “equity.”

Democratic Nominee Hillary Clinton has remained silent after a second night of riots in Charlotte, North Carolina caused major damage in the city.

Hillary Clinton told Steve Harvey that if the African-American community came out and voted for her, she would work to stop racial shootings by police officers. “Maybe I can by speaking directly to white people say, ‘Look this is not who we are,’” she said.

In its worst moments — such as the one we are enduring now — Black Lives Matter has inspired violence, terrorized police, driven up crime, and divided Americans. Still, the experience has produced three basic lessons — and raised one lingering question.

The people facing off against police on highways in Atlanta and Oakland may never have had any kind of negative experience with police — indeed, they share an implicit trust that the police will let them protest, even illegally — and yet they are forging a new political identity that can create its own reality.

Hillary Clinton made Dallas about “systemic racism” and the collective guilt of white people — deeply offensive in the context of an attack where white officers had been targeted.
