at those I know who are supposedly intelligent people that show no interest in any other view or opinion, and in fact are repulsed even at the mere suggestion - almost as if they're experiencing an electrical shock.

These are some very sick folks and I worry that there's so many now in America...... ......

Frm first lady Michelle Obama said, 'some people could never get past the colour of her skin' when asked how she dealt with racism while in the WH for 8 years.

Also, Harry Belafonte, civil rights activist stunning comments about racism in America on anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr. Excerpt


[Charlayne Hunter-Gault/Harry belafonte pbs]

Hunter-Gault

So, what do you think it will take today to make his dream of the beloved community a reality?

Harry Belafonte:

Until white America begins or even decides to identify a moral course of history, I don't think anything is going to happen. I think America will self-destruct.


The case is that we have to fix it. The fact is that it's not fixable if white folks don't decide to change their course of conduct.

The only thing left for black people to do is to burn it down. We have been lynched. We have been murdered.

And, if you look around, never before in my 91 years of history as an American have I ever seen the nation more racially divisive than it is at this very moment, including the days of the Ku Klux Klan and the segregation laws of the South.

I swear to God that Donald J. Trump must have had his heart removed. It seems to be a requirement to be a leader in the Republican Party to lose ones' heart.

Barack Obama has more humanity in his right fingernail than the present resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

It's really all too mind blowingly much but I think we're handling it well.. and I can't wait to look back on this whole junk pile of history.

There was a late night show, I think it was, where the host had gotten some regular citizens & each had an opportunity to stand in front of a portrait of Michelle Obama & say what they thought. What they didn't know was she was behind the wall listening. Oh man, it was such a beautiful video. I cried & also wished I could have been one of those people.

Found it:

I wish I could have been one of the ones to say goodbye. I would have apologized for white people & the misplaced belief that so many of us hold, that we are superior—as we face an ecological disaster of epic proportions brought on by mostly rich white men. Race is an artificial construct. The only fundamental difference in our species is female/male. And that's a whole other issue.
