No shade, but this post has been discussed 1000x. Let’s close out the year on a good note

This just remind me of that story about the Vegas hotel that wouldn’t let Sammy Davis Jr. in their whites-only pool, so he jumped in fully clothed.
They had the pool drained and cleaned.
(Story is possibly apocryphal)

And ppl act like that dude wasn’t still voting or sharing Fox News clips up until 10-15 years ago. A significant number of those clowns are still alive and influencing who gets elected.

This was St. Augustine, FL btw. They also attacked children for swimming on a segregated beach
Lots of those people are still alive and they vote. Too many idiots voted with them for some dumbass reason in 2024

If a racist needs an organ transplant, do you think they demand the organ donor be white?

The thing that really bothers me is that there are bunch of people more responsible for causing suffering under institutional racism, but we just don’t have any pictures of them with this kind of impact because they’re all billionaires and politicians.
The thing that keeps us divided is that a capitalistic society creates excess for the wealthy by denying the basic needs of the people who actually earn their keep. They’ve just done a good job of getting poor white people to believe that they shouldn’t be part of the underclass by virtue of their complexion, and that they need to subjugate nonwhites to get a seat at the table.
They didn’t kill Dr. King because of the civil rights movement – they killed him because he was starting to get involved in the socialist movement.

Racism is so stupid that they closed all the public pools.
