White Americans will never be ready to accept that they were brutal tormenters and strutted around like puffed up birds of prey. Which they still do.
The specter of outright slavery and later exploitation will forever haunt white Americans. They deny it of course, but it has eaten away at the American soul.
And genocide of indigenous Peoples?

As for me, I’m sick of being patronized and treated like some exotic brown pet by my white ‘friends.’ The list has dwindled to a few.
White peoples hate to talk about real history, America’s proxy wars and religion. Where I come from, we talk of everything under the sun. Except sex!!

Excellent article!
