    This has happened before in 1969. It was called 'The Rainbow Coalition' that was driven by Fred Hampton of the 'Black Panther Party'. He understood that poor White people were being pitted against BIPOC folks so the attention would be taken off the creators of White Supremacy. I wish all poor White people could let go of the privilege they have that does more harm to them so we can defeat our common enemy.

    not to nitpick, but.... "race" is a human construct; "species" is the word you're looking for. also, we can argue all day about whether god actually exists or not, but clearly he didnt "create" the human species. he (assuming he exists) may have created the beginnings of life, but that life evolved on its own.

    I'm curious, which "god" is that again? Thor? Zeus? Yahwey? Vishnu? Hera? Ra? Or one of the 2000+ other "gods" that have been worshiped by tens of millions? And is your "god" all powerful? If so does it choose to watch us suffer and die, for the 200,000 that have died of Covid? Or the children that starved to death while you read this? If I was able to cure or feed them and just watched them die wouldn't you think I was a monster? Why does your "god" get a pass? Maybe I'm wrong and your "god" is powerless to stop any of that, either way why worship such a horrible or weak thing? I've been asking these simple questions for decades, can you believe I never get answers, only crazy assertions without any evidence or even worse attacked personally just for asking questions. But I'm sure you won't do that, right?
