This is a creepy religion. It's embarrassing.

you can spend less money and get a better take on that subject by just reading the Torah or Bible !!!

Read about the authors to know where they’re coming from

Isn't it racist to condemn an entire race as racist? Or is it just short sighted?

There is hope.

call on robin diangelo to help support Black authors by donating portions of her royalties. a White woman is benefitting substantially from the protests and deaths of Black bodies.

Also check out 'The Color of Compromise', the truth about the American church's complicity in racism. Another important read.

Want to know about slavery read the Bible there you will know that slavery arose in Africa and was practiced by the Egyptian peoples before Christ and that slavery was not exclusive to blacks since Jews were enslaved and several other peoples.

Knowledge is a good, but concrete actions are better. If you’re white and you don’t have a black friend, neighbor or colleague, you're part of a system that perpetuates economic/social injustice and segregation based on race no matter how just and progressive you think you are!

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

A must read 🖤

Two Nations Andrew Hacker

Wrong. BLM is racist. And they are terrorist. Using riots and vandalism to attempt to strike fear.

Time to start pimping the collected works of Thomas Sowell.

“Black Fragility: Why it’s so hard for Black people to talk about anything but Race”

Take a look at this amazing broadcast

This is fantastic by Patricia Williams The Alchemy of Race and Rights

No need for a book, I found a chart to simplify it for all you rural right wing bigots.

How do we know that Floyd was killed because he was black? Is any proof? Stop the show!

The Virtues of Blacks and Abyssinians (By: Ibn al-Jawzi)

So is gun ownership, so I guess that also reflects a growing interest...

At the end of the day, remember we're fighting for EQUALITY! Not to insult an entire race based on the racism of some of them. We're All Out There Fighting Together

No thanks on the creepy humiliation cult and atonement theater. Injustice can be addressed without all the self-flagellation.

Stats show black kids start primary school already begind in awareness of their world movies culture computers counting numbers english both writing and reading. Poor parents focused on paying rent finding babysitter working

HillaryClinton racist liberals trying to buy their wokeness 😂

White Guilt - Shelby Steele

Everyone is a racist. I contend those who have been subjected to racism have become the most racist. It is a sad state of affairs which makes us all no more than primal.

This is the flavor of the month.

Forget the fancy verbiage. This book gets to the core of the matter with still unmatched power. Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave

No more perks, no more hand-outs based on race! Race free! Every person earns their own way!

Most of us have known how not to be a racist for generations with no help from BLM because we have brains and read our Bibles. Remember the Golden Rule?

It is completely racist for one group to accuse another of racism with no knowledge of their belief system or history as an individual. It is a chesp method of social control.

Racism is man made. All 109 billion humans ever to have lived trace back to Africa. As long as you and I pledge allegiance to separate groups this deadly game of control will continue. Reject racism. Reject tribalism. There is but one race; humanity. Challenge: Quit your team!

They mention how the Democrats were the party of the KKK, Trail of Tears, Eugenics, and Internment of Japanese Americans? What about how the Republicans were the party of The Emancipation Proclamation?

Between the World and Me

There's another subject whites find it hard to talk about. Not everybody finds it difficult to see the two are linked.

the euro christian hypocrisy......... the pillagers of the world........ 'the least ye do unto another'.........

Inshort: Racism is the result of white supremacy.

True! That’s what everyone is reading

damn...this has to be stopped, right ? foxnews? we can't have the white population actually grasp what the police have been doing to keep the black folks controlled!!! this needs to stop, right ? Rupert?

But no books on crime & murders and how to stop it?Where does America rank 1.

Good idea to cash in

Racism is a practical manifestation of an ignorance. Racists ignores they haven't created themselves, they haven't asked or chose the color of their skin, etc and ridiculously they condemn others simply because of their skin. Racists are ignorant.

Well that should be exciting for you!

There's a lot to learn from this video--and a lot of humanity on display. And it's very hard to draw the lesson that we should 'defund the police.'

Thomas Sowell should be in your book list

Propaganda flows frequently

“White fragility” is a racist phrase and mostly used by middle-upper class white women who idolize themselves as “a hero for poc.”

Stop pushing hateful propaganda. You’re doing race relations in this country a disservice by pushing this nonsense

Is there a book about how a mom and dad should stay together and raise children with morals and values? I think starting with the family structure would be a great place to being for A LOT of issues in our world.

A good one:

Worth a read - White Fragility

And check out these books from my APU colleagues:

Culture of Critique is another great book on ethnic tensions.

More divisive propaganda won’t help anyone

This is nothing but a political ploy...such a scam and a shame

Since statistically more white people are shot by cops than white, shouldn't we make a movement saying white lives matter?

A very, very old and wise man once told me, whether you are rich or poor, happy or sad, fat or fit, loved or hated by those around you, you have nobody to truly blame but yourself, you put yourself where you are...

Also read “Duversity Matters”, “White Out” and “Being White”

Listen and listen good. Rich white and black folk aren't on the frontline of the protests because only richlivesmatter. You gullible types need to stop drinking the Kool-Aid. No other lives matter. Not a race war, a class war. The real looters and bigots are laughing at you.

BLACK LIVES MATTER sets back black youth 400 years!

These minds are polluted by satan, BLACK LIVES MATTER has polluted peoples minds with lies. Who is the father of lies, satan, is the father of lies and confusion. Save yourselves!!! Stop bowing down to satan, 'ISLAM MUSLIMS BLACK LIVES MATTER' is wicked! SNAP OUT OF THE TRANCE!

Race relations solved: separation!

.that's a good sign.
