US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield has called for the dismantling of White supremacy and for the world to 'stand unified against this scourge' of racism

US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield on Friday called for the dismantling of White supremacy and for the world to"stand unified against this scourge" of racism.

"In so many of our communities and countries, racism is endemic. It's built in, like a rot in a frame. And it remains, and it festers, and it spreads because many of those in charge allow it to. Others look away and pretend it's not there. But like a cancer, if ignored, it grows," Thomas-Greenfield said during a UN meeting commemorating International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.

The sweet testy of oils and gas in biafrans land has blinded united nations and human rights organization..etc eyes. To extend they don't see blood of innocent biafrans splitting on daily basis by USA and British sponsoring fulanies jihad's Nigeria government. Thanks you all.

Racial, religious, gender, age, tribal, cultural and class supremacy has always existed and always will. It needs to be monitored and confronted when it harms others but it is naive to think that it will be eliminated!

Good grief. All the problems in the world and our UN ambassador calls for the world to fight white supremacy? Talk about attacking windmills? Ambassador how about standing united against covid-19, China unfair trade practices, human trafficking etc. What a farce.

I with you on this but you need to clear out 3/4 the house, 1/2 the Senate, all of the Billionaires, most of the Millionaires so no campaign $$$. Then you have to just wait for the rest of the Homo sapiens to die off. CNN RNC DNC UnitedNations

Racist woman. She is full of hate

Seven weeks have passed since the Myanmar coup. UN? Int'. communities Some Koreans say that it would be better to dispatch the Korean Armed Forces. Because there are many Korean companies and Koreans also. The majesty of the Korean military. 6 min.~

I do not believe 'White supremacy' is the issue in Senegal, Myanmar, Ethiopia, China or Thailand. It is also quite telling that Democrats only seem interested in uniting the world against 'White supremacy' instead of uniting against all forms of racism, hatred & bigotry.

Hun, there is no white supremecy in Africa and they are prejudice just because they are of different tribes

Yes we need to fight against white supremacy and The racist BLM organization. Oh and racist MSM media who spend more time villfying white people then actually reporting news.

This is worse than Covid 19 virus

White supremacy is a myth. Racial hysteria.Imagine a country so racist they elect a black president. Who started anti slavery movements? WHITE CHRISTIANS! Who signed emancipation proclamation? A white republican. 300,000 young white men gave their lives to free slaves.

They say this every day then nothing happens.

100% agree.....

Good luck with that nonsense and you would have better luck capturing Big foot as White supremacy claims is nothing but leftwing Propaganda and does not actually exist. All you have to do to be called one is vote Republican and be white.This is liberal insanity

Um maybe she should look at the crime bill Biden wrote in 1994.

So “dismantling ‘white supremacy’ isn’t in itself a racist comment?

Start from Africa were the colonial masters are still busy drinking African blood even after their great grand parents enslaved ours for 400 years. ENDNIGERIANOW

Stop talking about Racism and everything will stop. You hate the White people, You need to stop this crap. Your just like Oprah, Gale King. Spewing Hatred. Stop it & Grow up. Obama started this crap. Until you stop it, It will never stop.

Yeah 👍

Amen

White Supremacy only exists in the minds of racists.

I call for the dismantling of BlackPrivilege and that all people are created equally and no person is given special privileges because of their skin color, period! USAmbUN

Great call Ambassador Greenfield👍🇺🇸! White Supremists should have the same criminal designation as ISIS!

Says the powerful and privileged black ambassador for the only country in the world that actually believes in the white supremacy nonsense narrative, to the UN, where the majority of countries don’t have white people........2021

Shhhh. Don't tell her but the new leader of the free world wrote the how-to book on white supremacy. Read: 1994 Crime Bill.

👍👏

Oh oh the GOP isn't going to like that

50 yrs after Malcolm X tried to. Thank you USAmbUN 🙏 'In so many of our communities and countries, racism is endemic. It's built in, like a rot in a frame. And it remains, and it festers, and it spreads because many of those in charge allow it to.'
