Will the 2020 Summer of Hate Ever End?

It is a sign of our partisan political times that whites can’t address racial issues unless they are progressives hopping on the “racist” bandwagon. They even devote an innumerable amount of time in the fool’s errand of somehow being anti-racist.

Looking back on America’s 2020 summer of hate, stretching to the present time, it has become clear this racial hate was manufactured by a cacophony of progressive factions and interests. Abetting this summer of protests and violence was the ever-present MSM love child, America’s racial instigator-in-chief, Reverend Al Sharpton.

In his eulogy at George Floyd’s funeral Sharpton sermonized, "When I stood at that spot, the reason it got to me is that George Floyd's story has been the story of black folks, because ever since 401 years ago [that would be the date of America’s alleged racist beginning], the reason we could never be who we wanted and dreamed of being is you kept your knee on our neck.” An erudite citizen hearing Sharpton’s eulogy, universally covered by the MSM, might correctly inquire who the “you” and “we” were that Sharpton was referencing. Was he referring to all blacks and all whites? If so, his remarks could not have been more insipid or misleading.

Larry Elder, a very erudite and successful conservative commentator from South-Central Los Angeles, could have easily played the race card after his loss to Gavin Newsome in the recent California recall election. Instead, Elder refused to blame his loss on racism and committed to working for the preservation of conservative principles and California’s betterment. Conversely,  Sydney Kamlager, a black California state senator and Cal State University professor managed some rhetorical profundity that would shame Aristotle saying, “Larry Elder is a Black face on White supremacy.” If Kamlager’s allegation was true, the very idea of white supremacy was proven a misconception for which she experienced no cognitive dissonance since there is considerable evidence refuting such ideas of racism and white supremacy in contemporary society.
