I saw "Make Whites Great Again".

In the eyes of love, acceptance & tolerance. When were whites ever "great"?
Then I realized there are 2 perspectives of this context. White people will argue that they created many great things for the US. Uk & around the world. BUT! -1

Does it make it okay that they
1. kidnapped Africans from their homelands & dragged them to the US? Exploit, beat, rape & kill black men & women?
2. Drag minorities from their homes, gas them, & kill them because 1 man felt they were a danger to society?
3. Suppress women? -2

Cont-
4. Lynch blacks.
5. Kill or supress those who who don& #39;t have the same ideology?

There are many things that I see wrong here. I don& #39;t have a big enough platform or maybe I do to really talk about the mentality of those who feel threatened. They are molded to think -3

they are far more superior. That they are better than everyone else. Where did that mentality come from? Truthfully, I firmly believe that this thought process was indoctrinated from what the Old Testament claims. That Eve was made from Adam. When you think about it. No sense -4

is made of that when people are documented coming from a mother& #39;s womb. Being in the hospital, not struggling to get my bearings together has enabled me to think through things. We are so accustomed to back down. I am considered mixed but I look more white. I& #39;ve been a target -5

More times than I would like to admit. Imagine sitting in your car sifting through legal paperwork, outside of Fedex when you hear a sharp rapping noise on your window. You roll your window down & say, "Hey! What& #39;s up? How are you?" Only to be greeted with suspicion. -6

You wonder what& #39;s going on. They ask you what you are doing? You explain jokingly that you are a last min kinda person & are frantically trying to get prepared for a case in the AM. That suspicion turns to straight disbelief as they want your info. You give it w/no questions -7

They still think you& #39;re suspicious but they tell you to move away from the area. I have learned not to question. I just move to another location despite it inconveniencing me. Or how about the time, we went to a restaurant & our friend who has as they called it, a "black name" -8

Is paying for her food & her card declines bc the bank flagged as a precaution. The bank texts her. She says its her, but 10 years ago. She was a victim of identity theft by a family member. The GM as we are leaving. We are told she& #39;s not welcome bc he Googled her. Like, wtf? -9

His excuse, well your card declined and I am allowed to Google you. Come to find out, this white GM has some creepy shit in his past but you certainly didn& #39;t see us googling him. (He was known to have kiddy porn). POC, women have been dealing w/ this for so long. That we have -10

become desensitized to it. I don& #39;t mean everyone, but when someone hits you constantly w/ a dull spoon relentlessly no matter how many times you ask them to stop or you ask people to say something, help them. There is nothing other than that wall coming up. I agree w/ @ewarren-11

There needs to be a HUGE change. There needs to be a way to break these molds. So, where do we start with this? How? When will enough, be enough?
