My wife (not pictured) is bringing home fresh coffee beans from Uganda. They grow the beans and roast them there next to a waterfall. My old Sunday school teachers are shown sitting at the table. My wife says the people there are "wonderfully open, kind and accepting."

Such a great story it makes me want to send millions of African Americans back to that country so they can flee the racism rampant here.

I think most of the racism we have seen is in psychological operations and publicized by the giant media corporations. I have not seen racism in real life America like it is portrayed by the media and like anonymous posts suggest.

But, like COVID, even if we didn't see the virus, people still freaked out and feared it after watching and believing what the electronic screens told them. So likewise, people who see enough racist propaganda and believe it will be afraid to treat other human beings with kindness.

Most “racism” is just pattern recognition. Pre-Stone Age gatherers do not behave as Modern Humans and should not be expected to.
