I’m surrounded by racism all day everyday. It’s loud and it’s proud. And when I let people know not to talk that way around me…they do it more. Hence the proud part.
At some point over the past handful of years, it become ok to hate. Even cool depending on your peers. Some even find it amusing.
Every. Single. Day.
So I get a little confused when people say it doesn’t exist or that it’s the media.
I see it.
It comes into my business.
Sometimes sits at my desk.
It sits beside me at restaurants.
It’s now “unfollowed” on my Facebook.
It came to my house for Thanksgiving…
- tossing cigarette butts in my black neighbors front yard 🙄
It’s repulsive. It makes me cringe. The hate gets all over me and wears me down.
People are just awful.

@Ynotjenn My gut tells me you are projecting your racism on others. Sorry. I am from Arkansas. Racism was a problem in the 1970's. Now you just have resentments on both sides, and people who want to be victims in an endless struggle against something that is mostly gone. Fayetteville and Eureka Springs are entirely different from Mena or Waldron, and even those two have caught up with the times.

@Oberon1 🤣🤣🤣 I’m gonna end this here. I know what I see all around me. And I’m surrounded by rednecks. They’re horrible. I’d love for racism to not exist. It has no effect on ME 🤷🏻♀️ Except that I hate seeing it. And hearing it. I’m not out there marching everyday or attacking people. I simply see it. You are a compete blind whackadoodle if you don’t see racism in Arkansas 🤣
I mean…there’s literally billboards 🤣
But it’s all in my head and somehow racism makes my life better??🤷🏻♀️ Honestly it doesn’t have direct effect on MY life.
Must be nice sitting up in that tower where you’re sheltered. Maybe I should move so it won’t exist for me either 🤣🙄

@Ynotjenn I took lumps in the ninth grade for being a "n**ger lover" cause I spoke up. Polk county was the worst in the 70's..
Now, the racism is a fringe thing. It is not acceptable. The USA is the best place on earth for African people who want to be Americans. This hyphenated crap has to stop too!

Burning, destroying, looting, beating, killing, bullying, etc etc..... It is time to police the community! Yeah, we all hate you! You are messing shit up for everyone!
