Megyn Kelly says what? [1]

When I hear people like Kelly say the country has never been so racially divided, I want to ask them which country they are talking about. Kelly is 54 years old so I’m only 4 years older than her and I can tell her that the United States has never been united when it comes to race, hell we’re not even badly stitched.

Megyn Kelly is a journalist, I would have thought she knew how to research a subject before commenting on it. But unfortunately, as she is also a raging racist, that takes precedence over any professionalism she might once have held. Add to that, that racism is what keeps her viewers glued to her and keeps her payclicks coming, it’s no surprise that Megyn Kelly pretends that racial divide is somehow worse today than let’s say in the era of slavery? Jim Crow? Segregation? Civil Rights? Red lining? Lynchings? Burning black cities? Stop and Frisk? Drug wars?

There has never been a time when this fucking country wasn’t deeply divided over racial lines. N E V E R. There was however a time when white folks pretended not to see, not to hear, not to notice the blatant systemic racism being perpetuated upon Black folks through their institutions. That was the era where instead of calling Black folks the N word or lazy, they just invented reasons to jail us and decimate our neighborhoods in order to push the narrative that we couldn’t lift ourselves by the bootstraps, when the said bootstraps were handed to us soaked in so much corrosive acid they’d break on the first pull.

Few white folks have ever truly been non-racist, have truly ever considered Black folks their peers. Even amongst those who claim to be allies, there’s are those who think they are better than us and their unwanted pity is as annoying as their barely hidden racism.

There are those who refuse to acknowledge our history because “it makes them feel bad” never mind that no one blames present day US citizens for the sins of the settlers. It’s just something that’s been recently infused in their consciousness by those who want to widen the divide.

There are those who are just plain fucking racists. In their eyes the US is a white nation and should be run by white people and the election of Obama fueled their racism to extremist levels. They don’t want want any minority for anything other than manual labor. They resent the fuck out of the fact that their manufactured superiority is being challenged by the real-life accomplishments of minorities, particularly Black folks. The fact that Black folks have reached levels they never dreamed possible is not a thorn in their side, it’s a spear in their sides.

There are those who pretend not to be racists, but they can’t stand to see Black folks rise up the ladder, they can’t abide having Black bosses, they only like Black folks who “know their place” in the entertainment and hospitality industry. So long as we stick to those successes, they don’t mind us.

The only reason it “seems” worse to you folks, is because now the racists have discovered they are not as unique as they thought and through social media they’ve united and discovered their shared hatred.

The Megyn Kelly’s of this world, are the ones that keep those feelings and sentiments alive with their narratives. They are the one who plant the seeds of racial divisions and hatred in the minds of their kin. They are the ones who needs the racial wars in this country because without it they wouldn’t be anything in this world. Every era of this country has had their shares of Megyn Kelly’s and if she’s seeking the source of racial divide in this country someone offer her a mirror!

I’m trying to send kids to school in October please donate.
