"His election and the year that have followed have fixed the aweful thought in my mind too familiar to black Americans: "You can't trust these white people."
"Donald Trump's election has made it clear to me that I will teach my boys ... to be cautious, I will teach them suspicion, I will teach them distrust [of white people.]"
"For African Americans, race has become a proxy not just for politics but also for decency. White faces are swept together, ominous anxiety behind every chance encounter at the airport or smiling white cashier. If they are not clearly allies, they will seem unsafe to me."

If Trump's election suddenly made all this clear to him, why does he link to this SNL skit in the article? A few thousand votes one way doesn't change the way things have been for a long time and remain to be.

Great skit!!! Reminds me of election night. Such a great day. As corny as it sounds, that night restored my faith in the United States of America.
Hell with all that nonsense,I wanna know who Ted is what his problem is!
Look at his join date. Sounds like it's someone that's already been here.
Hello; Saw him on Tucker Carlson the other evening. I think he is teaching his kids that the world is a dangerous place and to watch out for white people. He compared this view to a father teaching his daughters to be wary of men until they know the men can be trusted.
A play on words starting with a vague but generally true statement and giving it just enough twist to fit an agenda.
To teach kids to be wary makes sense because there are dangers out there. There are dangers from both white and from black folks however. His twist, at least to me, supports the false notion going around lately that all white people are racist simply by being white.
Hello; I think "Ted" either is "All happy" under a new name or an all happy clone. He/she posted some random pictures in a threat I started. I asked for an explaination fro him/her but did not get one, at least so far. I reported the picture posts to a MOD because I did not start the thread for random pictures.
I agree he/she has a problem. Not sure what it is. maybe like a child going on and on with "why". Maybe just to annoy folks like me. Whatever, I suspect a mental defect of some sort.
Sheesh i would have loved to watch that. I hope tucker mentioned the crime statistics in areas like chicago
This guy sounds like he might be from Africa...if he is so worried about white people he ought to go back there and live and raise his daughters.....see how that turns out for them.
