   My apologies then. All those posts you have made about living in Canada led me to believe you lived in Canada.

I do, and yet you aren't privy to residency and living arrangements in the US, not to mention immigration filings. It's why we're best left not saying anything when we don't know much.

Racism exists everywhere in the world, but America has very little actual racism; instead we have certain portions of the population who try to make it seem worse than it is.  Many who have never lived in foreign countries have not had the opportunity to see rampant racism.

The last time I experienced racism against a non-white person was when I was a kid living in the valley (California). Ironically, the two major racism incidents were there. One, was a (white) boy who decided to call my sister the n-word (she was really dark all the way up until about 5 years old, then lost most of her black features, mirroring what happened to my daughter re:Asian features) right in front of me, lost a few teeth. Another was driving through a street and watching a white guy chase a black guy down and start curb stomping him. Never darted from a vehicle so fast. I couldn't do much at that age but mother gave him a swift *** whooping, helping the black guy get home. 

 

Beyond that, I've encountered countless bouts of anti-white racism, in the US and Canada. The thing is, living in such a multi-cultured family (or families, as on top of both sides of my own family, there's my sister's family from her dad's side aren't blood relatives but we consider them family, plus my in-laws, and so on), and being around so many different people, you quickly learn how okay it is to be racist in many cultures.

 

White racism specifically, in these radical movements like the KKK, was very much on the ropes, but thanks to these left extremist movements (and their overt anti-white hatred) mainstreaming, those dying fringe movements now have the justification they need to convince others. If you notice, they gladly clash with Antifa openly, as one of their recruiting methods, and while I haven't seen any documented evidence of their growth, I assume they are, because I know the psychology of self fulfilling prophecies and how these tactics work well with extremism. 

 

BLM is tribal leftism and it's not something that ends well, which is why they need to be shut out of public discourse and fringed just like Antifa, these white supremacists, and so on. One of the best ways is by simply ignoring them, the same way we'd ignore white guys constantly whining about "replacing us" and all this other stuff we make fun of nowadays, or trolling/making fun of them. The more they see people moving on from that, the more their movement dies off, but these moronic movements have us moving right back in that direction.

Oh and here's Denzel doing his Training Day impression showing us one of their gaslighting tactics of calling violence "peaceful". This is why no one with a brain, nor spine, placates or worst of all, capitulates:

It is important that immigrants (especially non-European immigrants) show support for protests against systemic racism in America towards black people. 

I know that it is easy to sit on the fence as an immigrant in this country and see it as a 'black people' issue and not care or worse buy into the prejudices and biases against black people in America. 

I have been in that boat before until I had a chance to learn the history of America (especially on the civil rights movements and immigration in America).

 

If you are a non-European immigrant in America, it is important to know that your ability to immigrate to this beautiful country is BECAUSE of the fight by black people (and with the support of allies - whites, jews etc.) that helped make this happen. The immigration system in America was NEVER originally intended for non-European people. Over the cause of America's history, there had been variations of the law that was intended to prevent immigration by non-European Americans and most prominently was the Immigration Act of 1924 which used the National Origins Formula to legally prevent and restrict immigration to the US by non-Europeans for the purpose of "to preserve the ideal of American [Northwestern European] homogeneity".

 

It took Martin Luther King and some key proponents of the Civil Rights act to cast light on this discriminatory and racist policy to force Lyndon B. Johnson and Congress to repeal and amend this racist law via the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. 

 

So yes, if you are a non-European immigrant (Indian, African, Latino, Asian etc.), it is important to know this piece of history and understand that it took the black civil rights to make you able to immigrate here today. America was built on racism but it doesn't have to remain so. We've come a long way in undoing a lot of the racist policies of the US and we need to keep doing so - together. 

 

It is very refreshing to see people of ALL diverse backgrounds, race, religion etc. rallying together against this cause. We all need to keep up the good fight and make America the greatest country on planet Earth.

    After reading your posts here, that is advice that you might consider taking yourself.
