7. intra-cultural racism

Would be this, I surmise. It's the same, I feel, of the intrastate bigotry as is among lighter/ darker brown/black skinned people. Being half German, I am during the winter a light skinned man of African-German-Spanish descent. I have always faced bigotry and hate from AA and Africans and European extracted people, respectively. Both in college and in my professional career. Just a fact of living in a terribly bigoted and racist world. Hell the Irish were hated in America by other European peoples who settled here. And all those European people(s), by and large, hated AA.

Slavery in America and the world is STILL responsible for a multitude of oozing bigotry's, prejudices, racist attitudes, murders, unfair false based on lies and racism imprisonment, executions, both summary and because of the fallacy of one race being 'superior' to another. This false dichotomy has led to immense grief for millions upon millions of POC.

This latest example of ameriKKKan Nazis snatching kids away from their parents proves it.

It really is all too much sometimes. And with this pos POS at the helm of this Titanic, all my experiences of interracial racism and intercultural bigotry have come flooding back in. Don't get me wrong, I know most Americans, black or white err on the side of decency, so far. German history is still an historical marker on how a nation can be sabotaged by its leaders that results in its TOTAL destruction.

Thank you for my further enlightenment.
