A Drained Swimming Pool Shows How Racism Harms White People, Too
6th March 2021
If you’re a White person who thinks racism only hurts people of color, the story behind an empty, abandoned swimming pool in Missouri might just change your mind.
Only if you have the IQ of a carrot.
These public pools, of course, were for Whites only. But when civil rights leaders successfully pushed for them to be integrated, many cities either sold the pools to private entities or, in the case of Fairground Park, eventually drained them and closed them down for good.
These closures didn’t just hurt Black people, though — they also denied the pleasures of the pool to White people.
Uh, no, it was the efforts of those who tried to force people whom they consitered heretics and sinners to associate with others (that they didn’t want to associate with) that ‘harmed white people’. So it was proglodyte ‘anti-racism’ that harmed white people, not racism — under ‘racism’, white people were just fine.
This is what passes for thinking at CNN.
