Two Forward, One Back

 

In less than four years, President Trump has successfully unmasked every racist and white supremacist hidden in plain sight. 

"His bigotry on full display at the 2020 presidential debate was appalling and repulsive, to say the least, for any U.S. president. It’s an utterly disgraceful chapter in American history." 

For all the advances this country has made through the civil rights movement, and the countless lives lost fighting racism and discrimination, to have Trump lead us all down a dark and divisive path is shameful. As Americans who love this country and the multitude of diversity that we all bring, enriching our lives for the better, we must learn to starve our fears about what divides us as a people, while taking great aim at distinguishing racism, no matter the president’s repugnant comments or tweets.
