Francis by Patrick J. Marrin for February 09, 2023

33 + 77 = 110 My US city is minority-majority. I wish someone would invent a better term.

Leo asks a good question.

I’ve heard some white people complain that there’s no White History Month. I responded with, “That would be great! Only one month to focus on white history instead of 11.”

White settlers were the ones with guns, germs, and steel.

scientifically speaking, there is only one race, the human race

No one is a majority. Chinese or Indian might have a plurality at this point, but each has their own internal disputes about how many of “them” are “them.” Race? The only time 2 are equal is when someone gets passed. Lets not race.

The problem with most racists is that they do not know they are racist. When you point it out to them, you are accused of canceling culture or being woke.

I can understand this, I started out racist, and then I grew up. I was blind to my racism for a good part of my life. I also wonder if I still have blind spots, but I do get more and more personally upset when I see other people being dishonored. Growing up has some uncomfortable awakenings along the way.

Barring something that causes my premature death, the United States will become a country with no majority in the remainder of my lifetime.

Until Archeologists uncover the others history, “History”, too often, is written by the winner. May not be fair, but that’s that. Color, race, creed down the ages rarely matters. Primates tend to distrust any groups that are not part of their immediate family unit.

Northern barbarians – hardly ‘grew up’ in the crossroads of civilizations…

Opinions are nice to have but are usually one sided!

And the old white liberal cartoonist can sleep tonight.
