Fundamentally, you're either an equal or you're a special case. There's no way to be both. And since our society wants African Americans to be special cases, there you have it.
Whites don't affirm my existence or essence. Look at the history of your people--- it's extensively documented with horrors against non-whites. African descendants of American slavery are exceptional people. We survived a very brutal white systemic exploitation of our labor---murder, rape, torture, medical experiments without anesthesia, psychological damage, etc. 250 years of slavery, and 100 hundred years of brutal Jim Crow, which maldistributed massive generational wealth and power to "whites". I live in the Deep South, where it continues to be black benign neglect with systemic white racism. A black Fulton County Sheriff has asked several times for money to fix a dilapidated jail where black inmates are mostly housed. There are many needless deaths in this facility. He's also asking that inmates be housed in private facilities where they can receive better medical and mental health treatment. Special treatment by the government? But for the feds, blacks, a very historically vulnerable group, would continue to be in an apartheid system filled with "white supremacist fuckery." States rights? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So says you. EVERY Ivy League university and most higher education institutions tell their students exactly that. And they’re listening to it and believing it.

Not sure how your comment relates to mine, but whatever.

True, but it doesn't change the reality.
