Racism is always a national issue in the US, and it's a major force in presidential elections.
But it plays out locally in all sorts of other ways; in communities, relationships, and individual lives.
Springfield's superintendent of schools is resigning after being recorded on an answering machine calling local black families scumbags, thieves, stupid, etc.
"The twice-impeached, two-time popular vote loser, adjudicated business fraud and rapist, and convicted felon Donald John Trump hates Black people, hates strong and educated women, and hates immigrants (until Black people, women, and immigrants can do something positive for him). He is having his life changed and his legal problems increased by Black people, women, and immigrants."
In #Trump's America, the new normal is a #racist, white father storming the stage and assaulting the black District Superintendent because he doesn't want his graduating daughter to shake his hand. Look at this poor girl's face as she realizes what her father has done. This #bigot's terrible actions ruined what should have been a moment of pride and celebration for his child. His #hatred was more important.
Racism prevails in Florida, where Rep Byron Donalds, one of TFG's top surrogates & VP contenders, praised Jim Crow as bringing Black families "together" at a Trump campaign event. Donalds says life was better for Black Americans under Jim Crow.
