How can anyone doubt the clear mentality of our white history while so many poorer Blacks have been trying in vain to live in simple real human equality. Our white history is that we have feared that black persons' increased votes will 'steal' our culture from us.?

Why can't we finally just own it and stop that immoral and silly 'fight.'? Our white history has been a fight to keep a majority white culture and its privilege alive and dominant, even if we've had to approve lies. That is what the violent attack on the Capitol at bottom was about.
I'm referring to the white unowned, and often barely conscious, gripping fear that America is headed to become primarily a dark skinned nation where white skin will have no more favoritism than other skin colors. And that we will be finally a grand developed democracy in the world. And ironically that is an accurate and hopeful image of the best new developing America. But the fear of it is a backward looking tragic delusion. This image instead should be what we are prayerfully looking to and longing for.
It is quite obvious, from this perspective, that an effort to maintain a white skinned privileged culture has been relentless from our start. And it directly opposes both scientific/social evolution and any sober estimate of a Sacred Will for our nation---our two most reliable sources of social truth and human dignity.
It's time to 'Stop the Steal' of human dignity and mutuality. And time to insist on one equal race. It's way past time to stop these tragic hide and seek games which successfully divide us and foolishly seek to stop our highest and truest national destiny.
The Capitol assault on Jan 6, 2021, as this post also indicates, makes clear that many (including many in Congress) will now openly support deadly violence to prevent our democracy from outgrowing its undermining determined 'favored white skin' mentality.
After many conversations this rational is my best and most accurate understanding of America's ongoing, and now definitely most dangerous, internal problems.
Most responses I get are some form of, 'We've managed this problem for 300 years. It's not as serious as you think it is Jim'. I've come to suspect it is more serious than most anyone knows or imagines. And it is nearly entirely a White People's problem to solve. We hold the real answers in our own history and heart.
