I disagree completely that racism is on life support. Trump and his supporters have made things much worse than they used to be. Racists are emboldened and are more open in acts of racism (e.g., spraypainting swastikas, attacking Asians on the street, throwing around hateful slurs).

That wasn't aimed at you Minimus, I was responding to iXav. I don't think there's anything wrong with talking about race, and I'm glad you started this discussion.

It's a great forgetfulness. Years and years of anticipation that go nowhere. At what point do you fold your hand and say, "I'm out, enough." I guess most JWs have too much in the game already to do that.

Racism does not benefit anyone, much less the stigmatized persons. Let's get that clear. -

I want the police defunded and I live a peaceful, orderly life. I don't want to burn buildings down. Minimus, you're overgeneralizing a little and you've been doing that in this thread. Police brutality against non-whites continues to be a serious problem which needs addressing. By far, not every police shooting of a minority involves the minority attacking police.

I was raised a non-JW but I went door to door preaching once. It was awful. So uncomfortable and I felt ashamed. Kids shouldn't go through that.

That's a little idealistic. Laws cannot be openly racist any more. That doesn't mean they can't be covertly racist.
