Go blow smoke up somebody else's ass, sweetie.
I'm not buying your doublespeak.
Racist is making choices or judgements based on race.
Period.
Siri Gibberish Translator, " You are discriminating against whites by defending Tubman."
Sorry buddy, but it was whites during her time, that wanted to keep blacks as slaves, the whites back then based that on race, so it is not doublespeak to point out that reality. She was a black woman who risked her life to free others from white people who wanted to keep them as slaves.
This is what far too many whites don't get or accept about our history. "This minority" did this, or "this first minority did that" isn't focusing on race. It is an acceptance that America can and should recognize contributions of minorities.
This is why even today, people with your mindset don't understand that "BLM' isn't claiming black lives matter more than white lives, but merely that they matter as well. America is not at a stage of equality. If you think we are, you are fooling yourself. Things have certainly improved since Tubman's time, but America still has not fully grasped or understood our history.
There are far more white people honored in our history than other minorities. Honoring the contributions of blacks, Hispanics, latinos, and gays isn't saying, "stop honoring white people."
Jackson was a genocidal madman, Tubman risked her life to save innocent people. I don't understand what is so hard about understanding that.
