Ask him; Do you believe the white race is a superior race?

Instead of asking if he’s racist.

In the more recent world history of slavery, 1619, Britain/Europians captured Africans and took them on ships to America to work for free. A fact which some believe is too harsh for their kids to hear hence book banning. I digress. This whole issue in this election became front and center for me after a Black Politician made national news; Mark Robinson’s old online comment of “support for restating slavery.”

Didn’t some black men make money in Africa by capturing people, after destroying their villages. The white slave traders needed these black men. Before the Civil War some “slaves” had it worse because they resisted slavery. Some lived in the houses and served the oppressor. Others lived in shacks and worked on the fields under the threat of the hired hand’s whip.

There seem to still be black men who are willing to destroy villages or lives so they can benefit in the form of power and money. They sell out to the most powerful man on the scene even if they need to quietly praise this man’s race as a superior race.

I’d like to believe that we could make this election to be about spiritual and emotional growth, not race. At the end we can make it about who can do a better job than who can have domination over whom or who can profit over who.
