| Publisher Description: This book explores what is driving the circus surrounding discrimination in America. Spoil alert: It's not discrimination. Americans are experiencing a daily deluge of being told America is systemically racist, white supremacists are lurking in every corner, and the nation is filled with white people with privilege. None of this is true. America ended systemic racism in 1964. Since this time, it has created the leading anti-racist nation. With American in the lead, in 1945, the death knell began sounding for white supremacy in the world. Shortly after this, America became the the first nation to pronounce it dead. White privilege, or the privilege of being part of the majority, has been replaced with white-un-privilege.If systemic racism is dead, why is everyone talking about it? The media and political leaders have gotten into the habit of equating every disproportional outcome as an outcome of systemic racism. They don't even bother to look under the covers. If they did, they would find, for example, that disproportionate outcomes in health care are due to disproportionate bad health habits - not racism. Disproportional educational outcomes are tied to some races/ethnicities not valuing education -not racism. Disproportional outcomes in the criminal justice system tie to the disproportional commission of crimes - not racism.The perpetuation of the myth of systemic racism occurs because lots of people benefit from the narrative. Same goes for white supremacy and white privilege. There are also lots of people that don't benefit, including hard working people that follow the law. That's because some people must pay for delivering equity and equitable solutions for the so-called victims of white oppression (supremacists). Someone must lose if someone gains. Equity is doublespeak for socialism that aims to deliver equality of outcomes. Equity in criminal justice is translating into creating a two-tier criminal justice system. So-called victims are given social justice, and law-abiding folks are given legal justice or no justice. This is a very dangerous turn of events that is undermining a pillar of America's foundation - rule of law.There are lots of other topics covered in this book including the untested and untestable Critical Race Theory (CRT) that advances a conspiracy by whites to keep people of color down. The adoption of CRT by politicians and social justice advocates underlies much of what seems bizarre today. Also covered: the utter insanity of centering American history around slavery per Project 1619; the insanity of waging war on unconscious biases; how "well-meaning" people "inadvertently" reinforce racial domination; drawing a comparison between equity and equality of opportunity; and a dangerous complacency toward separate but equal. Poverty pimps, race hustlers, well-meaning misinformed social justice advocates, and people harboring guilt for being born white have taken the leading anti-racist nation and falsely portrayed it into a racist pariah. This book tells the story of America's Discrimination Circus. It is the story of the world's greatest con job. |
