These are challenges you lay down. That’s a great idea. I wonder though if you have to lay down your life to “ensure” racial equality. I don’t the answer. I only see animosity continue and no longer see a”final solution” end racial injustice and inequality. There are forces of greed driving it, and we can see how easily those forces flip so-called liberals like Musk to become the ultimate conservative racist. Those with low or no morals change quickly for the sake of accumulating wealth and power. We are continually challenged and will be to confront these choices as well move along. I wish those that hadn’t been “sacrificed”—John Brown, Martin King, Medgar Evers—were not “sacrificed” and could have lived. While white supremacists glorify laying down their life for “god, country, family, honor” type hardcore marine stuff, I think that the true nature of democracy—which they hate and despise—is about radical acceptance of differences of opinions and world viewpoints and others. It is a willingness to not agree but to accept disagreement with other lifestyles and choices that don’t harm others. I don’t know the answers, just thinking outloud, but the violence and anger inherent in supremacy is the terror that generates distrust and destruction that only serves to concentrate power and wealth upward through division.
