to restoring racial justice

Great article but one technical point - you can't *restore* what never existed in the first place.

Yeaaaaah. That's not going to happen. Seeing America's demise is something many Pakistanis (rather many Muslims) secretly wish for. But hold back on the fantasies.

That's not happening. This is nothing. The 60s-70s anti Vietnam war protests and the Civil rights riots were much worse. The redneck Bible Belt has always been crazy. These are just their final pangs of frustration as they become irrelevant. The centrists aren't crazy enough to come out on the streets for Trump.

you seem to forget that during the vietnam days, the two major political parties (heck, only parties) republicans and democrats were BOTH on the same page as far as the vietnam war and the cold war was concerned, they were never at ideological odds before...this is the first time in u.s. history that the only two political parties that took turns gang banging america are now ideologically opposite to each other. one believes inherent racial superiority while the other believes in crushing all forms racial superiority. one believes in the biblical concept of homosexuality/bisexuality being a sin while the other believes in punishing those who believe in this biblical concept. one believes that global climate change is a farce while the other believes that it is very real and anyone opposing it is a rogue pariah and will be treated as such. see where its goin'? it has NEVER been that way in america's total history, even during the civil war days, they were on the same page on most issues.

You're lumping the far right crazies and the far left loonies as the representatives of the Repugs and the Dems. The official position of both parties is somewhere on the center.

We have our own black population in Pakistan in the Makran coast. Can a Makrani Sheedi woman host a regular morning show on Geo TV or ARY like Wendy Williams?

We shouldn't throw stones when we live in glass houses ourselves. America is eons ahead of us morally and I'm not saying this because I am some wHitE wOrShiPpEr....I am just stating facts.

The USA ain't going anywhere, they are still very strong and powerful on the world stage.
