No comment. I don't want to be lambasted like last time.

Dear Chris. You want to fight against racism? Okay, forget stupid football, here is one for you.

a bloke named Peter Read invented a story which defamed the entire white Australian race. He claimed without any valid evidence, that successive State and fedaral governments had for decades "stolen" 100,000 aboriginal children from their parents as a means of "breeding out the black", and therefore committing "genocide" (as newly defined by the UN).

This was a complete lie evidenced by the High Court of Australia's rejection of the entire allegation, as well as the total failure of the only "stolen generations" compensation court case (Gunnar and Cubillo vs. Fedearal Government}.

However, the Left agrees with Goebells famous truism that "the bigger the lie, the more people will belive it", and they have pushed this racist lie, even to children in our schools.

As a white Australian I am poiting out to you that the wjhite Australian race has been unjstly vilified. Many schools even required their students to abase themselves and cleanse their shame at being white by signing a so called "sorry book."

This quite clearly is illegal under 18C, the white Australian race has been "insulted, humiliated, offended and intimidated."

So go for it, Chris. defend your own people. Unless you are a loony lefty who only sees the most inconsequential examples of racism when directed at minorities, but who ignores the elephant in the room which is the ongoing, blatant and unrelenting racism directed at white people?

Lego, thanks for reading.

It is hard to write about racism.

Here my motivation was to show that liberal democracies are indeed fair societies, that most are not racist, and that attitudes have vastly improved over time, albeit here my focus is on sport (football codes).

"People of color represent 69% of NFL players and 35% of assistant coaches. But yet, only two head coaches are Black men."

Still a way to go me thinks.

My experiences showed me that many who claim to have experienced racism are in fact the racists.
Those accused to be racist are simply losing patience with the racists & return a racist argument.

Taking a knee, seems to always get a negative reaction from some of the onlookers. This is where we need t to become far more proactive and ensure that that group are quickly identified and ejected!

Racists are not born as racists, but learn their C.R.A.P. at home or from a peer group.

And it's those we need to show zero tolerance as the only way to eliminate, as much as we can, racism.

We need to judge others by the content of their character, not their skin tone.
