    I was looking for a place to put this so we could discuss but didn't really find a place that worked so I created this thread so we can all place articles, experiences, videos and examples of racism in the USA.

    This is one that happened this week. The lady even called and filed a complaint on the officer. This officer also chose to wear the body cam (apparently, LA doesn't require this yet). This exchange wasn't necessarily racist IMO until she started with the "mexican racist...you will never be white, like you want" garbage. That is when it turned racist IMO

    All the murderer and other insults, I think are just a by product of CRT and ACAB rhetoric that is very common on the radical left and sadly is being brought to mainstream in this country.

    Another point that I think is worth mentioning is she is a teacher and the sense of entitlement she feels is mind blowing.

    The video is disgusting enough, but reading through the comments attached to it is just gross. Just more proof that the racist really come out in support of Trump and he's made it fashionable to be racist now-a-days on the right.

    Okay, now here's the part where you might literally vomit out of shock and sadness for how horrible these people are.

    This woman who literally called an autistic child the N-word on a playground, totally unapologetically - who has now been identified and subject to ridicule in her community, has a Go Fund Me page so that she can relocate.

    And as of this afternoon, it has received more than $250,000 in donations.

    and I'm sure all of them, this woman, the people commenting on twitter and the people donating to the gofundme would all swear up and down that they aren't racist

    A Minnesota woman who called a five-year-old Black child the “n-word,” and then repeated that racial slur multiple times in a viral video while defending her actions, has raised over $700,000 as she has become a cultural folk-hero to much of the American far-right.

    The crowdfunding campaign for Shiloh Hendrix, which she initially posted after she shot to infamy over her confrontation with a Somali-American man in a playground, has taken off after the online right viewed it as a form of backlash over the funds raised in support of Karmelo Anthony.

    Anthony, a Black high school student, has been charged with first-degree murder over the stabbing death of white teenager Austin Metcalf at a track meet in Texas. The case has drawn attention in conservative circles, especially after Anthony’s legal defense raised over $500,000 on the crowdfunding app GiveSendGo.


    Besides using the Hendrix incident as a way to exhibit their own form of “vice signaling” over the Anthony case, a large portion of the MAGA crowd has also seen their support of her as part of their fight against “anti-white racism” and the “cancel culture” mob.

    “I’m glad she raised half a million dollars. I hope she raises half a million more,” Daily Wire podcaster Matt Walsh tweeted this week, sharing a video that featured a 20-minute monologue on why he backs Hendrix.……

    None of this is surprising.
     
    The advancements made in the United States in recent years to officially face up to its ugly Indian boarding school history are being walked back under President Donald Trump.

    The Trump administration announced in April that at least $1.6 million in funding had been slashed for projects meant to capture and digitize the stories of systemic abuse of generations of Indigenous children in government-run boarding schools.

    Now questions are being raised about the removal of details from the White House website of President Joe Biden’s historic apology for Indian boarding schools and his proclamation a few weeks later that the former site of the Carlisle Indian Industrial School would become a national monument.

    Both announcements have been scrubbed from the website, which responds to links with an “404 error” message. The Carlisle proclamation appears to have been moved to a government web page described as “Biden White House Archives.”

    “This is historical material ‘frozen in time,’” according to a statement at the top of the archived page with Biden’s Carlisle proclamation. “The website is no longer updated and links to external websites and some internal pages may not work.”

    Other statements suggest some of the measures may have been rescinded by the Trump administration. An archived statement posted by outgoing Interior Secretary Deb Haaland on Jan. 6, 2025, includes links to the apology and the Carlisle proclamation, with a warning note at the top.

    “You are viewing ARCHIVED content published online before January 20, 2025. Please note that this content is NOT UPDATED, and links may not work,” the notice states. “Additionally, any previously issued diversity, equity, inclusion or gender-elated guidance on this webpage should be considered rescinded.”..............

    A 12-foot-tall statue of a Black woman erected in Times Square meant to “confront preconceived notions of identity and representation” has spurred vitriol from right-wing provocateurs.

    The bronze statue titled Grounded in the Stars, by artist Thomas J Price, was placed in the heart of Midtown Manhattan at the end of last month, much to the disappointment of many disgusting Internet trolls.

    While Price hoped the statue would “instigate meaningful connections” and “allow for deeper reflection around the human condition and greater cultural diversity,” the Internet decided to take the hateful route.…….

     
    Ye (formerly Kanye West) continues to be in hot water after attempting to release his highly controversial song "Heil Hitler." After being yanked down by streaming services and DSPs on Thursday (May 8), CEO of Simon Wiesenthal Center, Jim Berk, shared a statement to Billboard, voicing his dismay and disappointment in the mercurial MC.

    "Kanye West's release of a song entitled ‘Heil Hitler' on VE Day, the anniversary of the defeat of the Nazi regime, is hate speech, pure and simple-totally in line with the despicable messages we now expect from West," said Berk.

    Berk's frustration didn't stop there, as he directed his attention to Elon Musk's social media platform X, for enabling such vitriol to be spewed by Ye and others.

    "But his partner in spreading dangerous vitriol against Jews is X, which is allowing flagrant violation of its own rules reading, ‘You may not directly attack other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability, or serious disease.'"

    He continued: "We call on X to remove West from its platform and for other platforms and distributors to refuse to host or monetize this song. There must be a clear line when it comes to glorification of genocidal regimes, particularly to millions of young people."...........

     
    A recovering alcoholic working at a FedExfacility in rural Pennsylvania claims she got fired for leaving early to attend an AA meeting, and contends her termination came about, to a significant degree, because her boss was prejudiced against white people.

    In a federal lawsuit filed Monday and obtained by The Independent, Margaret Fiander, 64, alleges violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act, and Section 1981 of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, which proscribes race-based discrimination.

    On top of allegedly failing to accommodate her disability, Fiander’s former supervisor at FedEx “discriminated against [her] because she is Caucasian and not Hispanic,” according to her complaint, which says Latino employees were given “preferential treatment,” while whites were “treated… less favorably.”

    Reached by phone on Tuesday, Fiander told The Independent, “This would’ve been settled and resolved by now, it shouldn’t have gone this far. I still wanted to work, I didn’t want it to get to this.”

    Fiander said management “singled me out and targeted me for things that everybody else got away with.” This, she lamented, kept her from advancing professionally, and today she remains out of work.……..

    Joe Rogan argued against tech platforms banning Kanye West’s latest song praising Adolf Hitler, noting that the millions of downloads the “kinda catchy” tune has racked up on X “kind of supports” the rapper’s antisemitic views that there’s a “concerted effort” by Jewish people to remove him from everything.

    West, who has openly expressed his love for the leader of the Third Reich in recent years, uploaded the songs “Heil Hitler” and “WW3,” another tune that glorifies Hitler, to X earlier this month. While Spotify and SoundCloud rushed to remove the song from their platforms, Heil Hitler proliferated across the Elon Musk-led social media site and racked up millions of views.

    “Ye’s most recent repost is of a video mixing historical clips of Hitler together with his song as a backing track. He also shared a video on X of influencer Andrew Tate — a self-described misogynist — playing the song in his car. That video has been viewed over 3 million times,” NBC News reported last week. “Ye’s account is verified as an organization on X, meaning it could be eligible for monetization and ads. It’s not clear if Ye’s account uses those features.”

    With the pro-Nazi tune continuing to spread across right-wing social media accounts, Rogan attempted to thread the needle this week between denouncing West’s hateful and trollish rhetoric while also defending the lack of censorship on X. At the same time, he argued that the song’s popularity on X could be seen as proving some of what West is saying about Jewish people.

    Speaking to comic Tom Segura during an episode of The Joe Rogan Experience earlier this week, Rogan brought up the song and quickly pointed out that it’s “kinda catchy,” prompting Segura to declare “that’s the problem with it.”

    Noting that West has “never lost a step” when it comes to production, Segura then tackled the subject matter itself. “There is a thing where that song is like, what are you doing, dude? Like, what are you doing, for real?” Segura wondered.

    “It’s the ultimate pushing back,” Rogan responded.

    Segura, meanwhile, felt that “making a catchy song” about shouting “Heil Hitler” only serves to give permission to others to do that very thing in public. “Like, you’re just getting at a minimum, you’re just going to get more people that think it’s cool to say, ‘Heil Hitler.’ Like, that’s at the minimum,” he added.

    “Well, I think that’s part of the program. I think that’s what he’s trying to do,” the popular podcaster replied.............

    Made the mistake of reading the comments

    Jesus

    Gross doesn’t even go far enough

    Outrageous, infuriating, tragic, heartbreaking, maddening

    And I’m sure many of those people would swear they aren’t racist, also swear racism isn’t a thing or problem anymore

    Fork every last one
     
    Republicans are pushing to end the remaining school desegregation orders mandated after the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark 1954 ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, and many were puzzled by the New York Times' framing of its report on the issue.

    More than 300 desegregation orders remain on the books from the 1960s and 1970s, when federal courts were given supervision over school districts that refused to integrate, and Republicans have found allies in the Trump administration to roll back federal orders they say are outdated and no longer necessary, as the Times reported.

    “I don’t think it serves the interest of justice to have ancient consent decrees out there,” said Harmeet K. Dhillon, the assistant attorney general over civil rights under president Donald Trump. “It is 2025. I haven’t heard a recent claim that there is government mandated segregation happening in 2025 in a school district. If it’s happening, it’s wrong.”

    The Supreme Court has said the orders were meant to be temporary, and many have been lifted over the years after demonstrating efforts to desegregate, but civil rights advocates fear the effort is part of a broader pattern of attacks on Black students under the Trump administration.

    “You have an administration that denies the past and wants to tell a singular story about America and this country that erases this racial inequality,” said Janel George, an associate law professor at Georgetown University.

    Critics were puzzled by the Times' headline – "Some Republicans Push to Put School Desegregation Officially in the Past" – and framing of the topic, and even one of its own columnists chastised the newspaper's coverage.................
