Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required What is a racist? These days it’s hard to know. It used to be so cut and dry Back when practically everyone, Heck, even old Honest Abe The Great Emancipator, Was openly White Supremacist. Then it became a fringe thing Reserved for the poorest, least educated Among US, at least something Not mentioned in polite company. That’s how it was when I was young, And it only got better, Until recently when it became a thing again, Like an old scar Picked at to become a festering sore. Now it seems everyone is a racist, Except not openly. I know of well meaning liberals who still think Only skin-headed, Klan-hooded Whites can be the racists, And just can’t see that liberal whites Who condescend with their low expectations And are convinced Blacks need their white helping hand Aren’t just as racists as the openly bigoted. Then there are the blacks and Hispanics, Asians and Indians who hate each other, As well as the big bad White Supremacists, Because of something as superficial as race. But they can’t possibly be racist, Even though in their hearts they know they are. I know people without a bigoted bone In their body Who can see and accept race realism, The reality that there are distinct Knowable, measurable, and obvious Differences between the races In every way, from physical attributes To emotional and mental qualities, And they are surely called racist By those who can easily imagine them In their clandestine hoods. So clandestine these race realists Don’t even know they’re wearing them. Racism is a funny thing after all As it can come from any angle, Up or down, in or out. You are a racist if your think another race Is superior to your own, Just as much as if you think they are inferior. You can be a racist towards others, And towards oneself. We’ve even seen this in recent public figures Who are mixed race and the racism battles There just below the surface within themselves. What does it mean to be a racist In an age when the word has lost all meaning And projection has become the popular currency? It means what we want it to mean. Which means we can’t be sure What it means to anyone else. (9/24/26)
