But, the supporters say that you cannot paint BLM with such a broad brush because of the actions of a few.

That is precisely what Dyson does in this article. He has painted “White America” with the same broad brush. “White America” is prejudiced and blind to the struggles of the black man, according to Dyson.
Mr. Dyson has no idea how I was raised, what I was taught, or how I feel as a white person.

Based on DC Urban Moms I'd say that "white america" is prejudiced and blind to the struggles of the black man.

Nor do I think that this article was particularly good, to be honest. Not sociology-professor-from-Georgetown-level good.

Even though I think that, yes, everyone has a lot of work to do--Whites maybe especially--to open our eyes to what is going on, and what we an do about it in a constructive, equitable, reparational way.

How about reparations for coal miners un Appalachia? Chinese who worked on the railroad? Japanese interned? White sweat shop descendants? Everyone has suffered; everyone has hope . Except in limited cases (GU trackng down the descendants of sold enslaved workers is interesting, though I dont think they owe them money) I am tired of this culture of victimization. I think it has gotten us to this precipice. Left is truly a glass is half empty, bankrupt philosophy.

After the shootings, the Times starting to bury the article, and no longer feature it on its web page.

It's a disgraceful, overtly racist article that, at least in my opinion, should never have been published and ought to lead to Georgetown's promptly severing any and all ties with Mr. Dyson. It is inconceivable that the Times would have printed any article by a white author purporting to diagnose the pathologies of "Black America," "Hispanic America," or "Jewish America" in such broad, crude terms. But it was happy to print Dyson's article. The rich liberals who run the Times need to take a hard look at themselves now and ask whether they have promoted racial discord and violence, by publishing such vile drivel.

No, OP. The NYT didn't incite anything. Nor did it "bury" anything -- content loses freshness after time and is replaced with newer content.

Let's keep the focus on where it belongs: Badly trained and trigger happy police forces that disproportionately target black people for violence. Thank you for your cooperation in that.

If anyone who reads police reform or brutality opinions takes away from it a call to harm officers then we really need to improve reading comprehension in this country.

Maybe yes, maybe no, but the article is illustrative of the hate-filled rhetoric that the Times has provided a platform for (so long as it is anti-white and/or anti-police).

People will jump through hoops and claim that Dyson's hate is directed towards white privilege, or institutions controlled largely by whites, but the rhetoric paints all white Americans with a broad, negative brush.

Again, I ask what goal the Times thought it would achieve by publishing such drivel, and how the rich liberals who run that paper can sleep at night knowing the consequences of its actions.

Please don't spread lies or at least do your research before speaking.]
