White racists hate black people and the knee-jerk reaction is to hate them back. This is the typical reaction  that our culture produces. Wait a minute. We are in a very desperate situation and as such knee-jerk reactions should give way to carefully thought-out  strategy.

The sad fact is that these racists are nothing but pawns of the notorious 1% that dominate American politics. One percent is a very small number, so how can such a small number dominate American politics? Of course, they have busloads of money to buy politicians, hook, line and sinker. They have so much money and power that they consider themselves superior to the ordinary American. In my book, “Leave the Rat Race to the Rats”’ I refer to them as American Supremacists

But what is their prime strategy of these American Supremacists for such a mall group to political control  such vast numbers? This strategy is as old as the hills and is working like a charm. To quote from my book, “Leave the Rat Race to the Rats”:

“Their prime strategy for domination is divide and rule, by pitting white against black, Muslim against Jew against Christian, haves against have-nots and so on.  Throughout history a small powerful group has been able to control large more powerful groups by sowing discord among them and inciting infighting amongst each other so that they are able to maintain control”,

If we black people, respond to the hatred of white racists with hatred, we are playing into the hands of the American Supremacists. Hate for hate is typical of out revered but destructive culture of retaliation. Hate poisons our society  and we should try to reduce this monster, certainly not increasing it.

Anyway, what do these misguided white racists want? Do they want :

• segregated schools
• segregated housing
• segregated lunch counters
• police to continue killing innocent black people
• good jobs for whites only
• only whites have the right to vote

Really? I think not. I have too high an opinion of them.

Besides, I think for most white people, racists are an embarrassment to them. Recently, with the rise of racism, I have noticed white strangers seem much more friendly. I think they are trying to say, “I am not one of those despicable racists”. Most racists are in the closet. Why? This is because people of all races find them despicable too.

Give it up! Instead of being a white racist:

• Let us reason together.
• Let us resolve our differences peacefully
• Let us frustrate the American Supremacists
• Let us work together to fight for :
  • A living wage
  • Healthcare for all
  • Equal justice for all
  • Making the rich pay their fair share of income tax
  • Goodwill to all

A better world for all is possible and, together, we can achieve it.
