Dear Karen,

Can’t you see?

O say, can’t you see?

When you trivialize racism into matters of ‘black and white’ name-calling and into superficial matters of manners (i.e. the way people treat each other) you are the force of white supremacy imperialism.

For it makes it so easy and so convenient for you to ‘do your duty’ and make the *obvious* complaint against stupidity, against arbitrary gross unfairness, against silly injustice.

It is so natural for you to fight against such gregarious affronts to decency, order, and rationality.

You are the Empire striking back.

You say that you don’t see color.  You say that all lives matter.  You complain that “they’re” *making* every thing into a race issue (when it isn’t and there aren’t any such issues, anymore).

You say with especial indignity that you aren’t responsible for something ended and *solved* so long ago.

You say that Obama divides.  But, Trump vehemently opposes division so he  ?????!!!!!    {Well, you can’t say “unites” but he is directly opposite of Obama in ALL ways, so I suppose he fights division by unifying the better –  (*superior*?) – side of the division in deeper but more righteous ways????!!!!!}     

You say that we don’t need black history because we have “history”.

You might even say – or imply with such searing silence –  that ‘they’ should “get over it”.

And playing the slippery slope game of ‘what will it be next?’ in your special innocent indignant and morally affronted way doesn’t make it better, honey.

The forces of white supremacism are so fundamental and so interwoven into all of the threads of the fabric that is our society that it’s so easy to miss the totalitarianism of it all.

It’s more than the outward manly physical force of vigilantism and lynching.  It’s far more than the out-and-out laying the institutionalized as well as the informal traps and snares of impediments to any means of advancement – be it education, be it housing, be the workforce, be it mass imprisonment.  There must be 50 ways to keep down the inferior.

It’s beyond the way “they” are ALWAYS put in a no-win situation, physically and psychically.

It’s beyond the way “they” are given absolutely no outlet of complaint or protest or resistance, be it Ghandian peaceful or be it Jesuit turning-the-other-cheek and enduring, or be it Maccabean violence.

It’s beyond the outright *principled* refusal to *grant* respect (on ALL levels).

No, it’s in the way you so very righteously, so innocently, so decently and so indignantly exercise your privilege of putting it to “the manager” in your victimized light.

All facets of social control work in concert to maintain the critical “fact” of white supremacy, both on the white ‘debit’ side and on the *manifestly* deficient black ‘credick’ side.

So, hence, you have made clear – or obscured and hidden all the much more thoroughly – just how pervasive and ubiquitous and tenacious the total social maintenance of white supremacy in America remains.

You might as well just come out and say that black lives indeed don’t matter as much because they are so inferior to white lives on every nearly every level.  You might as well just come out and say that pc proves it and that it’s the democrats who perpetuate dependency.  O!  But you did.  (Just in that indignant and affronted way that makes certain you come across good and “they” come across silly and unreasonable – obvious signs to you and yours that “they” are indeed wrong and, hence, inferior).

O Karen, don’t you see?  This white supremacy should have been gone long before Emmitt Till whistled.  It should not have been entwined so deeply into the fabled law of our land (even embedded in the 2nd) – a land which is sure pure and clean and God-like. It is indeed in our “history”.  It, indeed, is taught in clandestine form of indoctrination to white kids and to black kids, while “black” “history” is denied and derided.  All forces combine to perpetuate it. Can’t you see, Karen?  White Supremacy must die!  First its cover must be blown.  It must cease to be fronted by righteousness and decency.

I wish you’d do your part and cut out the triviality and the indignant act.  Don’t be Gone With the Wind.  (For that is deeply racist too, and an integral part and parcel of totalitarian social control).  O! Say!  Can’t you see?

Bye White Bitch,
Sincerely,

Mr. & Mrs. Truth and Justice

P.S.  You may think your position unassailable, beyond rational question, and righteously immune to criticism.  You may fool many (or even most) people.  You may have many on your side and you may feel the strength in numbers. You may be certain that your man (or your menfolk) will mangle, maim or shoot anyone who dares.  But we can see right through you.

P.P.S.  I love you

P.P.P.S. You may think that I/we can’t take a joke, but white supremacy is no joke.

P.P.P.P.S.  Don’t look for kisses on the bottom.
