America's Tradition of Racism

[US] Medical Schools Have Historically Been Wrong on Race: While the blatant horrors of the past are gone, the ideas that fueled race-based medicine stubbornly linger. We can America should change.

[Only in America. Shameful.]

Unfortunately, in this age of OnlyBlackLivesMatter, in many Western nations the pallid target group of reactive racism has been unjustly accused of causing every personal misfortune that has ever befallen the New Racist Agitators.

Fairness and equal opportunities are important, but OnlyBlackLivesMatter is problematic:
a) racism is racism, no matter its target group
b) there will inevitably be a backlash against excessive demands
c) blaming others for every personal failing is counterproductive in that, like anti-semitism in Nazi Germany, it fails to address the actual problems, and,
d) blaming others for our own failings retards achievement of maturity
e) when all the statues have been torn down, when penance has been vengefully demanded, when reverse discrimination has impeded merit, and yet the blame-victimization individuals still have not prospered, what will they demand next?
