“People were upset about Trump's win in 2016 because he ran a campaign promising to implement policies that targeted racial and ethnic minorities with state violence (and he did) not simply because he was mean or rude. In no sense is Biden's campaign comparable. Sorry! Biden won't be banning Christians, arbitrarily revoking the status of white immigrants here because of natural disasters, trying to sell off white populated parts of the country or encouraging police brutality against white people. Your disappointment is not oppression. (11/9/2020 on Twitter)” TrumpOppressionImmigrantsPolice BrutalityDonald TrumpWhite PrivilegeBiden2020 ElectionJoe BidenWhite Americans Author:Adam Serwer
“The artifacts that persist in my memory are the photographs of lynchings. But it’s not the burned, mutilated bodies that stick with me. It’s the faces of the white men in the crowd. There’s the photo of the lynching of Thomas Shipp and Abram Smith in Indiana in 1930, in which a white man can be seen grinning at the camera as he tenderly holds the hand of his wife or girlfriend.” TrumpRacismCrueltyIndianaDonald TrumpWhitenessLynchingWhite PowerWhite Americans Book:The Cruelty Is the Point: The Past, Present, and Future of Trump's America Source: The Cruelty Is the Point: The Past, Present, and Future of Trump's America
