Americans are deeply divided—and we’re deeply divided over why we’re deeply divided. To be antiracist is to recognize and challenge racism as the source of the racial divide. To be racist is to deny racism and frame those challenging racism as the source of the racial divide.

It is empty when politicians call for healing and peace without stating antiracist policies they want to institute. Words bring momentary healing and peace. Policy change brings lasting healing and peace by rooting out the racism suffocating so many people. We want to breathe.

The quote "When the looting starts, the shooting starts" originated by a racist white Miami police chief named Walter Headley who targeted black people in 1967 ahead of the Republican convention.
Donald Trump used the same line tonight to threaten to shoot his own citizens.

I really, really don’t care what you think. I went to a PWI. I watched white students at the University of Maryland set fire and go on a rampage every time they beat Duke in BASKETBALL. No pain. No anger. And they were NEVER called thugs. EVER.

"I'm not a racist. I did not mean to harm that man in any way," Amy Cooper said. "I think I was just scared."
Why were you scared? Why did you fear the Black male?
Fear harms.
The heartbeat of racism is denial. The sound of denial: "I'm not a racist." cnn.com/2020/05/26/us/centra…
