If Abraham could question The Ancient Of Days, why can't African Americans question, America?

You come here with nothing but your white skin and claims, Honey.
Where are your receipts?

Where is the evidence for your "colorblind" Scammy Davis schemes?

Bring them here.

"I picked the cotton, and I carried it to market, and I built the railroads, under someone else's whip, FOR NOTHING. FOR NOTHING."

-- James Baldwin in his 1965 debate against racist William F. Buckley at Cambridge Union.

Colorblind plots and schemes can NEVER genuinely justify or ever truly compensate for what was deprived -- centuries of murderer and theft.

So, you come back when you're serious.

You're not serious.

If you're interested in a serious conversation.

Ask ...

But then, again, let us suppose that African Americans did experience something no other ethnicity, in human history experienced?

What would that look like? What metrics could we even use -- it's never happened.

And, without the proper metric to determine the seriousness of the impact: would colorblind policies help or harm the one ethnicity whose identity came about primarily through White Supremacy?

These are questions we must ask.

Is it really fair to compare (African Americans) the one ethnic group most impacted by racist policies; with The Newly Arrived immigrants who weren't similarly impacted?
