When signing the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Pres Johnson said ""I think we just delivered the South to the Republican Party for a long time to come." He was right.

SFC Bernard Walko From your the starting pg of your website, Social Justice Survival Guide: “It is standard SJ fare to claim that America (and specifically white Americans) must atone for the past sins of racism. Thus, the institution of America carries the burden of racial guilt. However, if institutions carry burdens of guilt, then let’s get more specific. It was the **Democratic party in the United States that was most responsible for slavery and Jim Crow. At the time of the Civil War, all slaveholders were Democrats, or at least no one has found an exception at this time. And the Democratic Party was the party of Jim Crow, as well. Although the KKK was not officially aligned with the Democratic party, it consisted of white Democrats who terrorized both white and black Republicans (mostly black ones).

“One of the rationales that some Democrats had for slavery was that blacks were unable to take care of themselves, so slavery was actually good for them. This attitude sounds reprehensible today; however, the Democratic Party still treats blacks as if they are unable to stand on their own and require a dependence on government.…” And so forth to chapters I haven’t read yet.

I see this was written in 2018. White-shaming has been most oppressive to many White Americans in the United States. I have fought against it quite vocally, encouraging European / Caucasian Americans to endeavor to find their voices of self-respect again for their heritage and accomplishments in America, which are vast. And, to teach their children. I think things will come full circle again. However, it’s possible the Democrat Party is done for.
