How to Solve the Problem of Racism

We all know the Acoholics Anonymous Pledge.

We all know the Gamblers Anonymous Pledge.

Or we can find these pledges easily online.

What should be the Racists Anonymous Pledge?

But such we’re all such racists, which of us has the moral authority to write such a pledge?

I am ___________, and I’m a…..

Well, I guess I’m denial like all the other insane racists, just can’t admit it, and given the fact I’m from a great race and we’re such great people, but I can’t just admit being a racist….of course, I’m not a racist, nor are any of my friends racists, and most of the people I know are not racists, we don’t use the n word or the k word or the g word, or what’s the demeaning derogatory denigrating dangerous word they call your people?

Some people are trying to explain Michael Richards by claiming he’s insane. But if we’re indeed all racists, and racism is indeed a form of insanity, then when it comes to race, we’re all–insane.

Just try to get us to admit it.

Yet, it’s refreshing to hear to two "sane" young men, the brunt of Michael Richard’s racism, in their TV interview, talking about Michael Richards. But these are young African American men, in their mid twenties, who state, also, that this is the first time that they have experienced such racism, or heard such a "racist rant." Say what? Yes, these are truly young men. They are truly young men.

Even having grown up in a generation where such racist speech is "banned" from the public arena, that doesn’t mean such racist thoughts do not continue and continue.

Such racist speech is not foreign to their elders, however. And every now and then this type of "free speech" needs to be heard. Most people are not telepathic, and they can’t read thoughts.

So every now and then these thinkers need to be heard. However, of course, it’s a problem when they are heard. Because then everybody starts telling them how awful they are. Nevertheless, many of them are just saying what everybody else is just thinking. So let’s not scapegoat Michael Richards, who someone referred to as "a nice guy."

We, all of us, are racists. Let’s just admit it.

Personally, I prefer the word racialist.

Racialists–doesn’t that make us all sound like we’re "nice people."
