Ibram X. Kendi is a highly regarded historian, and I found this chapter very well supported in terms of certain Supreme Court legislation which certainly does not support the argument that the arc is bending toward justice. In fact, I find his argument credible indeed, whether or not I agree with him. At this time I see no reason to disagree.
Surely the existence of the Maga Movement, its numerous adherents, and its gross attacks on so many of our fellow citizens is a clue to the validity of Kendi's argument. Look at the efforts being made to even deny Black history in case the fragile feelings of white students are hurt.
I must agree with my Jewish friend that too many folk seek out the less powerful to scorn...even cats!
