I don't even understand what the point of that is. To me, it's like, don't you want to understand the world as it IS? And the things we can do to make it better? Whether that means negating harmful rhetoric from white, black, asian, hispanic, muslim, man, woman, w/e. Shouldn't we be doing the things that harm people least? And enhance our common wellbeing?
But hey, I guess some are just resentful about history. I'd also say white people don't help their case by trying to brush the negative under the table out of shame. Like whenever a black person begins to even mention reparations, whites freak the **** out. Same with Indians and discussing reservation conditions. etc. nnn
