"We are told America is living through a ‘racial reckoning’. Is it really?"

Whites have been making huge economic sacrifices to aid blacks since the 60's.
They've even given preference to blacks in hiring and college admissions over whites through Affirmative Action.
What else would you like?

My post said the exact opposite of this. You know, as evidenced by words like "regressed in race relations".

You are mistaken. Something is wrong with American blacks. People from all over the world [including blacks] go to the US and do well. They educate themselves, and their children, they start businesses, they build houses, become rich and become an important part of American society. Most of the time they get no support, or grants or assistance from the Government.

Hate to tell you, but Europe, England, Canada, Australia, and Scandinavia have the same problems with them.

You dont need to be so extreme... any other country in the world would do. Chances are their response will be the same. Since BLM, several blacks who have their head screwed on right have come out and said that just being born in the USA is like winning a lottery. Smart blacks know the truth. The lazy ones keep wining and closing their eyes to what is going on in the rest of the world, failing to appreciate what they have.

You know.
Please don’t quote my posts and then start hurling racist claptrap. It makes me very uncomfortable.

Yes. I would consider it natural.
I wouldn’t agree with it. I wouldn’t support it. And I’m in no way in favour of materalism at the best of times.
But it would be natural.

I also don’t see a great deal of similarity between South Africa’s apartheid regime and the current situation in the US.
Yes. There are some behavioural problems to overcome, but the law has placed everyone equal.

There is something uninviting about certain mentalities in the US. And if you aren’t white, anglo-saxon protestant, some people won’t even give you a chance.
Yes. They don’t like blacks. But they don’t like asians, catholics, hispanics, jews, moslims, communists or gays either.

And when you sum it up like that, it’s no bloody wonder they’re paranoid as hell.

Maybe, but it is not the same. What I refer to is
- Constant demand for reparations
- A high reliance on social security, and demanding more
- Very high crime rates, and very high unemployment
- Rioting. looting and violent demonstrations

Not sure all those countries have all of that.
