If History has taught Humankind 1 thing; it is that Bigotry, Prejudice, Racism, Inequality and Injustice of any kind are forms of Ignorance & Fear and their Supporters are as blind as Moles.
Crawl back into the your holes and stay buried.
"We shall overcome, someday," Martin once said; but not this day, it seems.
Thousands of years of Slavery; where the focus has not been on the "Crime of Slavery," but on the specific Racial Degradation and Tension, which cannot be addressed by a simple saying, "Suck it up or Forget it;" or as something the Media started. The beginning is more deeply ingrained in the psyche of North America; the KKK vs Brothers of Elijah; a prime example and many Groups that spread Hate, Fear and Ignorance; Neo-Nazism, Anti-Semitism, Anti-Muslimist, Anti-Church, Homophobia/Hetrophobia twist, Sexists and many other countless small organizations around the World that promote Fear, Hate, Biases and Injustice based on a number of criterion.
The World is Minority Rule, because they have the Finances to keep the rest of the World at War; fighting because of Fear, fighting; because of Hatred; fighting Ignorance and Oppression. Yet; their hands seems clean, even as stained with blood as they are, because others do their handiwork and are handsomely paid for such endeavours.
Unfortunately; these flames are fanned to a blaze best and fastest, because of hundreds of years of unabashed injustice and tension, begun with enslavement and is a opportunity to further separate the Black and White peoples of America, because in that country, they believe it's a National Security Matter.
A friend posted to me; "I should consider how far things have come," but in doing this his profile was Al Jolson in Black Face...an extreme example of how America once thought of Black People. When Actors in Black Face walked through the front Door, while Billy Holiday, Sammy Davis Jr. and a host of talented Black performers were told to use the Servants entrance at the rear.
Racism is Alive, Well and Spreading across the Globe; a conflagration of Epic proportions; a Fire that will not die, because there is more Fuel than Extinguisher.
You want to put this Fire out; you have to erase Mankind from the History of the Earth, because it began with Mankind; it will end with Mankind's Extinction.
I am not saying, "NO MORE!" I am saying "KNOW MORE!"
HAVE I GOT YOUR ATTENTION
