Across many religions, light is associated with good and purity, while darkness is associated with evil and corruption. For example, Satan is often called the Lord of Darkness and demons are often portrayed with dark skins. Meanwhile, God is often portrayed as a brilliant white light and despite Jesus growing up in Jerusalem and likely being dark in complexion, he is often portrayed as a Caucasian man with blonde/brown hair. Even the Archangel Michael is given the appearance of a white male.

Now how does this relate to racism? In this world, we have people that have Jesus/Angels phenotypic features from movies and paintings and then we have black people that look nothing like them and more in keeping with Satan's complexion. It's not far fetch to conclude that a lot of white/fair skin people could use this to justify their racism towards black people, as well as, embolden their belief of being seen as superior and good.

In addition, by already having this warped view in your mind at a young age, you might already have biasness in place to mistrust or look for bad traits in a black person over that of a white person.

Return to the Land, an ethnonationalist organization, has established a whites-only settlement in Arkansas and plans expansion into Missouri. The members forming this "white people only town" say its to protect benefit and act as a stronghold for the white race of americans in the United states, that they apparently don't see it as being anything bad..

Welll being not white and born in the southern united states, all my life, I never seen how white people honestly anywhere in the south, or in america in general, being oppressed in any way. Historically there's only ever been white people having the lucky upper hand at every point of their life.

Just for a little example let's take the time black people did try and build a successful community. Just 1 state away. In Tulsa Oklahoma, It was called "Black Wall Street" it was made of a community of black owned businesses that actually thrived in the early 1900s. It didn't keep out anyone based solely on their race or LGBT status or beliefs. It was a community that welcomed everyone. But not long after it was seen as being successful. The Tulsa Race Massacre happened in 1921. All because some white residents that lived near it didn't like seeing blacks being able to have a successful self sustained community.

Now a days most Maga would claim this is just woke bullshit that shouldn't be taught in schools. But they're just wrong this is what happened and for some the only way some people would even hear about it is from the history books or a black person that remembers the events happening, even I didn't know about it until I heard it from my dad.

Look what I'm saying is it's not bad to just build a community. But when you actively push out people based solely on their skin, religion, or LGBTor immigrant status then thats just not fair and not right. Frankly it goes against what america has valued for the past 120 years.

But what do you think? Good thing or a bad thing?
