Supremacy of Racial Ecopolitics

A caste preservationist favors separation 
of White from NonWhite races.

Racists come in two varieties,
but both behaviorally support White privileged apartheid,
if not in what we liberally say
about capitalism's free 
and irresponsible speech marketing way
then in what we conservatively do 

Too comfortable with neighbor-hooded
apartheid school
and patriarchal church
historical monoculturing segregation
practicing our habitual systemic trauma 
combative politics of xenophobic mistrust.

Racists favor separation of positive light
v negative dark eumemic cultures
to perpetuate economic
and political partisan praxis 
of ChosenPeople irreligious superiority

An ongoing "upper-self" v "lower-othered" 
disempowering
unenlightened "winner" v "loser" 
systemic trauma narrative.

There is no authentic empowerment side
of love
in this history of racist segregation
because we are all apartheid losers
when we prefer to fly apart

And stronger when we fly together
more polyculturally inter-religious 
deep listening enriched

By our choices for inclusive community investment,
when and where we seek divine empowerment 
of MotherNature's cooperative multicultured purse?
rather than monotheistic business 
as win v lose 0-sum
northern light v southern dark
anthro-privileged 
bipolar
oppositionally defiant
caste-preserving usual

Competing to defend 
birthright v birthwrong
long separated standing
in life's lesser survivalist
v greater thrivalist
apartheid pecking order

A dull monoculturing defensive position
within Win v Lose strategic oppositions,
entirely inappropriate for organic Gaia's
WinAnthroWealth/WinEarthHealth 
polyculturing positive eumemic 
pronoia

Healthier and wealthier
and wiser resonant opportunities together
than dissonantly risky 
xenophobic paranoid behavior 
dark deadly caste apart.
