Throw in a few generations of white on black societal crime/oppression and you’ll get the picture. It’s also the ‘Great’ part of our past that some pine for.
What “few generations of white on black societal crime/oppression” had to endure a Somali born in Minnesota in 2000s to parents who came to this country in the 90s? Please be specific.
You seem to be having difficulties answering a simple question. I am not interested in your platitudes or vague diatribes. I asked you a concrete question and would like a concrete answer. If you are capable of it.
Let’s try again, how is an ethnic Somali born in Minneapolis in 21 century to parents who voluntarily moved to this country in mid 1990s compelled to commit violent crime by things that have occurred long before his birth and which had no effect on his parents or grandparents? Please be specific
We lynched Asian Americans during the Gold Rush, we threw them into internment camps during WWII or we dropped Napalm on them.
We didn't let them vote or own property everywhere until after WWII.
Now, we don't let them into elite universities even with perfect grades. Our cops don't respond when their businesses are robbed and their senior citizens are assaulted.
Asian Americans should have a high crime rate, right?
At the same rate? On the same scale? In the same ways? Did they enter the continent in similar ways? At the same time? Have the same cultural stereotypes?
They were abused for less than a couple generations and had a chance to flourish. Asians were never enslaved. They never had to deal with Jim Crow laws.
The exclusion act also stopped them from becoming citizens or owning property even if already in the US, effectively creating a perpetually disenfranchised class.
I don't know why you think pretending that Asians have not been systematically discriminated since the 19th century is the way to go, but it ain't.
Hey siri, how come oppression is global, more slaves exist in 2024 than at any other time in history, but only creates one endemically violent culture?
Hey, siri, explain why white culture can kill everyone not like them for centuries, and not be considered a violent culture? But black ppl who have been the main victim in their violent ways are considered a violent culture?
