These avowed White supremacists  make a great spectacle, and express their views with sufficient clarity and directness that it is an easy pleasure to repudiate them. And if the current surge of approbation serves to wash away all monuments to the Confederacy, that is no doubt a good thing. But we should note that none of these young men has had much part in constructing the world as we know it. They are not loan officers. They do not sit on school boards, or staff corporate personnel offices. They have not been laboring away for a hundred years in federal housing commissions. While they may aspire to wickedness, they deserve scant credit for the deeply systemic abuses that have adversely affected the lives of Blacks and given unjust advantage to Whites throughout the history of every state of this country. I suggest that condemning a grab-bag of over-the-top White supremacists is a small part of working towards justice. If they all renounced their views tomorrow, little would change.
