Eliot Rosewater
Eliot Rosewater's JournalWhite America needs to have the discussion Black America has everyday.
First of all, how many of us white Americans believe that since we never use the "N" word or maybe we support the NAACP financially or we always say the right things about race, that we are not part of the problem?
Racism in America is a one way street, as a white American my side of the street is always paved, rarely has potholes in it and when something needs fixing I merely need to make one phone call and within hours repairs have begun.
Or you know, something like that. And I know many white Americans dont experience that level of privilege because of our oligarchic system, but I submit that as white people we dont KNOW what our privilege is because we have it, all the time, always have.
W. Kamau Bell is an ambassador to the ACLU and in this months magazine has written (cant find it to copy paste or link, sorry)
"One of America's biggest problems is that people of color are having conversations about racism literally every day, and most white people are only having them when they are forced to."
I wish I could link the article, but maybe we should discuss this more often?
A democratic politician in CA is vastly different than a democratic politician in WV
In fact the democrat in WV or some other red state is barely recognizable as a democrat sometimes.
But as a democrat nonetheless, said seat gives OUR party control and power.
Without control, we have NO power, none. Not ONE democratic amendment or bill was voted on in the senate all last year, not ONE, now do you see how important control is? The GOP does not allow anything a democrat proposes to be voted on.
This two party system is NOT complicated nor is learning how the party in power decides

Was the Russian Mobster appointed to Dept Justice Criminal Division?
Did that happen while we were distracted by some other heinous garbage enacted by these fucking traitors?
Of course he is a racist, so are you Lindsay.
It isnt a question any intelligent, thinking person is asking, we are PAST that conversation.
GOP is racism. That is what distinguishes you from not just democrats but all other people.
Next?
The lie about his height and weight is yet another example of what?
What is it that no republican ever does ever?
Anybody?
Class?
White house official screams at reporters while trying to ask questions like you would
see in a fascist state.
This is what the right wants, this is what your republican neighbor and cousin want.
If a reporter is asking a tough question of their leader they want the reporter stopped or jailed.
That is where we are, folks. Imagine the danger in being someone reporting on the many felonies of the trump and kushner families.
When trump ordered Acosta out of the oval office for asking a question, and the entire world of journalism and all republicans didnt go ape shit, we lost what little we had left of our country or free press. And if it isnt ALL gone yet, it will be so get to the march this Saturday, your life depends on it.
Kazakhstan's President Heads To Trump's White House

He is the only living former Soviet leader. Everyone else is either dead or has been kicked out of office with the purge of Communist Party officials in 1992. And he is coming to Washington on Jan. 16, the first and only 'Stan president to meet with President Donald Trump at the White House.
The proof that the chief traitor is a money launderer is in this man's hands and trump will buy him off in their meeting, I assume.
FORBES will of course mention NOTHING about the connection.
Rachel, however

When the GOP shuts down the government this week, does that mean MUELLER and team
are shut down?
We need to pay attention to what they are DOING, not what they are saying.
Is every single white republican a racist? DUH -NOT news! Well what he did as in shithole is news, is important but right now we need to focus on what they are DOING, not what the chief traitor is saying.
It was a BLACK MAN who began the downfall of the Nixon WhiteHouse

We could sure use some heros today, like Frank and
