Critical Race Theory is not racist as its detractors, especially within the Republican Party, claim. Indeed, it is anti-racist and geared towards improving race relations and making the America a better society.

Why are some Republican senators smearing Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson who is more qualified than any of the current justices of the Supreme at the time of their respective confirmation? Is it a case of Supreme Court confirmation while black?

America cannot preach and support democracy abroad while thrashing the same at home.

It is a shame and an affront to America's democracy for Republican party elected officials and a vast majority of their base to continue to deny, downplay and whitewash the dangers that the Trump-provoked insurrection posed to America's democracy.

America's democracy is currently in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) not because of outside competitors or adversaries but from Americans. American democracy is going through a sad state of self-destruction and if action is not taken to reverse course, the damage could be irreversible.

The removal of the monument of Confederate general and racist, Robert E. Lee, in Richmond, Virginia, is progress towards mitigating racism in the United States.  While we celebrate these incremental progress, there is more work to do. His monument is gone from Richmond but his statute, in his Confederate military attire, remains displayed in the famous Statuary Hall in the United States Congress - the seat of America's democracy. What an embarrassment.

Based on contextual and factual analysis,  I  believe the American National Anthem is racist at worst and racially insensitive at best.

By blocking the creation of a 9-11 style commission to investigate the January 6, 2021 insurrection, the Republicans are covering for Mr. Trump  and the insurrection's racist undertones.

Calling blacks and other minorities "People of Color" is a racist lumping of all non-white people effectively making them appendages to the white race. Call me black, call me African American - that is who I am. Who are people without color? Why are white people not called, "People of Color"? Because they created the rule and installed themselves at the top of their racialized hierarchical society.

The conviction of police officer, Derek Chauvin, is a positive step towards racial healing and improved race relations. However, the promise of a racism-free society does not rest upon the conviction of one or several police officers – it rests more with the deconstruction of America’s systematic racism.
