As a person, who is, and looks like, the great melting pot of America. Being American is all I have. I cannot truly claim to be one race or another, I am something different because I do not fit neatly into a category. My children need a place to grow and be who they are. Without the worry of being accused of cultural appropriation because of the way they look. It is racist to say someone cannot participate or enjoy something because they are (or just look like) the wrong race. We must wipe it from the planet throwing it out of schools, businesses, and government. It is the only way we can more forward as people.
Civic nationalism is the only shot we have at a functioning semblance of America as we’ve known it in our lifetime. If that goes, society reverts to it’s historic default of ethno/religious lines. No exceptions.
I agree. Without a baseline, being American first, so many divisions are being crafted in order to essentially cause chaos. You make a great point about Civic nationalism, this explains why those who join our side are simply and equally one of us. It really sucks for those on the left because they have created a hierarchy in which their intersectional points catapult members above others. I have never thought about race in general until recent years. I am really over it!
