Antebellum slavery created an estimated four trillion dollars of wealth that went into the pockets of whites and has been inherited down through the generations. Jim Crow laws denied blacks basic civic opportunities (even remaining alive). The federal government in the post WWII era denied home loans to blacks while making it possible for whites to purchase homes that today are worth millions. These are historical facts, and there are innumerable other examples of the systematic discrimination against blacks and other minorities. So tell me again about our color blind, one race, Homo sapiens society? No one is accusing every white person of being a racist. But identifying the historical legacies of racism is altogether necessary to understand why BLM and other such protests occur. My guess is that you'd be out in the streets yelling too if your country, government, and president made it clear just how much they hate you and want to keep you oppressed for their own aggrandizement.
