Your unwillingness to acknowledge it doesn’t make it any less true - the US was built on white supremacism. Whether it can actually exist without white supremacism is an unknown and perhaps worth debating - but what it is right now is no mystery.
It can though. What kind of white supremacist country would have let a black man named Barack Obama anywhere near presidency? Then elected him twice? My boss is black, next door neighbors are black, some of the coolest actors in hollywood are black. It’s not 1864 anymore and race is quickly becoming irrelevant. The last thing we need is another way to divide people up while the rich sit back and watch the infighting.
