This essay won’t change anything. But it needs writing on the chance it stimulates one mind.
Some Americans who have lived long enough will agree that America is sick. She was sick for many decades before Barak Obama came along and fed Her arsenic, and before J. Biden stumbled his way into the WH to stimulate inflation, human trafficking and the distribution of fentanyl. But, thankfully, America’s damaged immune system still has potency. And, thankfully, healing isn’t a bit complicated. Difficult perhaps. Even painful. But simple. You make Her well by deciding to make Her well. By deciding to change the things that make Her sick. By deciding to adopt treatment that restores Her health. America can’t cure everything simultaneously. But you can help make a start by exposing the most visible sickness — The Big Lie. That Lie says Black America is in the grip of systemic racism. That Lie is perpetrated, not by ordinary Black Americans, but by leaders. These leaders of all stripes reside in government, at universities, in college and professional sport and in major corporations — coalesced by a mendacious media. The Lie is marketed under the banners of Black Lives Matter, Equal Rights, Cancel Culture, DEI, CRT and a number of other political identities. The Lie aims squarely at White American males. The Lie demands Social Justice. The Lie points its accusing finger. At whom, Matilda? Just who are the White enemies of Black America? Just who obstructs Social Justice? Which Congressman or Senator or President or Supreme Court Justice or political candidate will stand on the mountain and name the individual names, the groups, the mobs, the leaders of White America who are systemically racist? Which College Professor will publish a paper that exposes by name the White Americans who scorn Black Americans? Which Black or White Head Coach or Athlete will stand in the middle of an arena and unmask the White racist parents, school administrators, team owners and fans? When will corporate execs who embrace WOKE ideology point accusing fingers at the Most Wanted Racists? For Pete’s sake, call out the White bastards.
Just who are the enemies of Black America?
The last time you looked, you didn’t see a White mob burn down a city because a Black thug murdered a White person. You haven’t heard one White American demand that DEI must be implemented for every college or professional sport — to demand that all team rosters must be at least 50% White. The last time you looked, stadiums are filled with White fans who cheer Black athletes. On hundreds of occasions, majority White audiences endorse Black American candidates who strangely embody America’s values expressed in The Constitution.

You are not a statistician. But it could make sense to use the tried and true Process of Elimination. First, rule out women of any race. They are a minority that has been on the equality warpath for years; and so identify with other minorities who suffer alleged discrimination. Excluding them eliminates 170+MM — half the country. You have to exclude Black American males. That’s about 21 MM. The Educational System at all levels represents millions of people who push the goals of Social Justice. Boomer II, Generation X & Y represent millions of Americans whose ages are sympathetic with racial equity. The medical communities, entertainment communities and ethnic minorities are populated by majorities who support Black America and must be ruled out. The Depression Era cohort and WWII cohort, 20+MM strong, plus White male retirees are dropping like flies — they are in no position to be actively racist. Plus, 22% of the population is under 17 years of age.

The combination of all females, Black, Hispanic and Asian men, miscellaneous ethnic groups, the dying generations and the kids come to to just about everyone, although online sites claim there are at least 40MM healthy, White adult males raising racist hell in America. By contrast, your recent in-depth study of this population clearly proves that nearly all but a handful have long since abandoned any animosity toward Black Americans. This conclusion is absolutely confirmed by witnessing Black and White Americans appearing happily together in TV advertising and programming. In no way can redneck workers, white collar workers, cops, wealthy philanthropists, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, business owners, billionaires, brokers, contractors, Republican Governors and Preachers be considered threats to the advancement of Black America.

Which leaves you to confess that you and a few diehard racist friends and Donald Trump are incomprehensibly responsible for creating nothing less than racist havoc throughout America. But everything must come to an end. The members of your tiny racist cell have promised to keep KKK robes locked in cedar chests at the far corners of their attics. As for Donald, be might want to appear on The View and sweet talk Whoopi.
Happily, this expert analysis is reason for optimism. White male racists have all but disappeared. No need to round them up to join the Jan 6 crowd of Whiteys locked away in maximum security prisons. After all, somebody has to work the farms, factories and highways. Somebody has to generate electricity, repair machines, build homes and unstop toilets. Leave it to former racists.
Meanwhile, you must move on to other illnesses that threaten America’s health. The Southern border seems to need immediate attention. You will address that illness soon.
And God willing, the remedies won’t be rooted in systemic racism.
