I'm not sure what is more disheartening, electing the preferred candidate of white supremacists to be president in the 21st century, or that most white liberals are too ignorant of our history, feckless, and self absorbed to acknowledge how bad and common white racism is in all aspects of our society. The one good thing about white folks, as a group, is that their children tend to be less racist than their elders. Unfortunately, they are still producing folks like Dylan Roof too. We had a saying back in the 1960's and 1970's that is still true today. "We are not where we want to be, and we not where we are going to be, but thank God we are not where we use to be." There is nothing about American history I want to relive. There are no good old days back there for me.
