The continued protests for racial justice continue to annoy America’s Racist-in-Chief, Donald Trump.
During a recent Fox News interview, Trump denounced Black Lives Matter as an unpatriotic “Marxist group” intent on destroying the country.
Sadly, Trump is reviving an old racist trope -- in the 1950s and 60s equating the push for racial justice with a covert Communist plot was a common tactic for segregationists to denounce the Civil Rights Movement.
Trump also lashed out at the NBA and MLB players who have collectively decided to kneel during the National Anthem in support of the Black Lives Matter movement: “We have to stand up for our flag, we have to stand up for our country, we have to stand up for our anthem and a lot of people agree with me.”
BLM and other activists are not protesting the flag. Rather, they are pushing for a racially inclusive nation. Donald Trump prefers the politics of racial division and white nationalism. Where do you stand? Tell us now:
