The NYT Committee to Elect Joe Biden Presents...

Another elite woman, this one white -- a doctor's daughter, professor's wife, mother of three sons, and author of backyard botany books and other ephemeral -- writes in today's New York Times about the recent racial strife in America's urban areas.  I wonder if any editor asked if it was a bit overboard, her... channeling her own inner Dr. King like this:

An Open Letter to My Fellow White Christians

Our sins are grievous, but we are not yet beyond redemption.

NASHVILLE — Since long before it was a country, our country has been in flames. When we arrived on our big ships and decimated this land’s original peoples with our viruses and our guns, when we used our Christian faith as a justification for killing both “heretic” and “heathen,” we founded this country in flames. And every month, every week, every day, for the last 400 years, we have been setting new fires.

White Christians who came before us captured human beings and beat them and raped them and stole their babies from them and stole their parents from them and stole their husbands and their wives from them and locked them in chains and made them work in inhuman conditions. Our spiritual ancestors went to church and listened to their pastors argue that these human beings weren’t human at all.

Our pastors don’t tell us that anymore, but we are still setting fires.

Enough. Let her wallow in her white privilege then.
I have a healthy breakfast to make, and a crock-pot to ready for this week.

I don't eat crap, not from privileged blacks or privileged whites, not women or men, no matter their alleged position of authority in society today. *Turn it off*  It's a long way until November, and this is not likely to burn itself out, but to seek further winds to fan the flames...

A racial civil war, all in the name of electing... Joe Biden?
Hmm. What am I missing?
