    In reality - ALL FOUR are examples of systematic racism because they are classifies by a qualifier whether it's the color of one's skin, hair color, bank account size or shoe size -
    Since the proponents of systematic racism insist that the United States was founded as a racist society, that racism is thus embedded in all social institutions, structures, and social relations within our society.

    Basically it's the epitome of painting with a broad brush

    Yeah, this is what we need. What does the bolded part mean?

    The only thing that will stop murders in black neighborhoods, or in any neighborhoods, is a higher standard of living, not laws that will be enforced through a racist lens. Economic improvement will happen only through a mass radical movement to create a system in which the people democratically control the wealth that we create with our labor.

    He added the bolded part and his question after I replied to the original quote.

    The author is advocating socialism as the solution to income inequality, which has had a disproportionate impact on POC due to systemic racism. He thinks that is the only thing that will stop shootings in black/poor neighborhoods because it is the only way at this point to lift the mass numbers of people in these area out of poverty.

    I personally think there are other things that we could try before we try that, but it would require putting far more resources into these communities.

    Re: Turn Off the NFL

    Ray, from your article:

    “About three weeks ago — before President Trump said that N.F.L. owners should fire players who kneel during the national anthem — Democrats and Republicans held relatively similar views about the league. About 60 percent said they viewed it favorably, while about 20 percent said they viewed it unfavorably, according to daily online surveys conducted by Morning Consult, a polling, media and technology company.

    Since Mr. Trump’s remarks, though, many of his supporters have changed their attitudes.

    Trump voters are now much more likely to say that they view the N.F.L. negatively, reflecting a sharp change around Sept. 23, when Mr. Trump criticized the players at a speech in Alabama. The views of Hillary Clinton voters have not changed appreciably over the last few weeks.“

    He just stated what the majority of the country were thinking. The NFL players made it divisive.
    This is how he won the election my friend. He is in the main stream of what Joe American believes and thinks.
