To People Of Color...

[Progressive Jones]

As a white man, with insider knowledge, I can assure you that there are way more hateful, racist white a-holes than you probably already imagine.

However, take heart in the fact that there are way more white people who are your allies than you probably imagine.

We're trying, believe me. We can't turn all of the racists around overnight, but we're trying.

1. I'm curious to know why you abandoned your other thread?

And could you explain further what it is you do to “turn racists around?”

2. Abandoned what other thread?

And, regarding turning racists around, all that can be done is talk to them and try to make them see the light.
It's not real complicated.
