We have to end structural racism that offends, strikes, and kills.

Among the new public programs in support of Brazilian Black youth, Lula mentioned actions to promote greater inclusion in education, health, culture, sports, and security.

lula is trying to privatize prisions, the overwhelming majority of people in there are the black youths he said he wanted to protect.

he sure has a way with words, but words alone are completely meaningless.

This, basically. International Lula is the best. Domestic Lula is almost worthless, and his biggest merit is not being Bolsonaro. His conciliatory/let’s-be-friends playbook will pave the way for the next far-right lunatic and probably get him in trouble again.

I agree racism needs to be left behind along with many other hangovers from being a tribal animal.

Racism isn’t a holdover is is actively perpetuated in order to defend the current system.

Racism serves to keep the working class divided and to create and terrorize an underclass

Being a tribal animal is fun, but you’re right, those hangovers the next morning can be brutal.

I dont think you will find many people on here that will disagree, the issue is that who gets to define what racism is and who is doing it. If we go off what many americans call racism, most everything is racist.

I do not understand this. Can you explain what Americans definition of racism is then as it seems to be the same as most everyone else’s. What am I missing?

If you googled it you will find that every conceivable things is being called racist by different people. The left side of america uses Critical Race Theory, which is a variation of critical theory, and in using that it can make anything racist.
