White people have historically benefited from systems of oppression including slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, and ongoing racial discrimination while remaining silent and complicit, and this silence is a moral failure that perpetuates injustice; white people must recognize their privilege and take responsibility for addressing systemic racism rather than expecting Black Americans to carry the burden of fixing racism alone.

When Will White People Finally Give a DAMN & FIGHT for Black Americans?Added:
White people, we are the problem. And I don't really care if you like to hear that.
This country was founded on white silence and slavery.
It was designed for one demographic, 21-year-old landowning white men. That's how this country was founded. America is not a great country. I don't care if you like it. You're welcome to go back on the Mayflower and ship your ass back to England cuz I really don't care. Facts don't care about your feelings. This country was designed to benefit white people. It demonized anybody that didn't look like me. And it's disgusting and it's morally repugnant. And there's too many people that look like me that don't want to have that conversation because it makes you uncomfortable because you've bought into the lie of American greatness because of flags and bald eagles and freedom, freedom, freedom, and guns.
It's not. It was founded on cruelty.
And it survived that way because of white silence, because of white privilege, because white people stood by while black people couldn't drink from the water fountain or sit on a bus or sit in a church. But you had no problem going to church with black people hanging from trees. Nothing to see here because we're a Christian nation. Black Wall Street burns down.
Black people weren't allowed to be citizens.
Asians in internment camps.
How many Native Americans died because of white people? H and we stood by year after year, decade after decade, two centuries, we sat by and watched it happen. And it's disgusting and it's vile.
Today, right now, the southern states are going right back to the Confederacy.
I wouldn't be surprised if they start putting up Confederate flags and having clan rallies again. And you know what I'm going to hear from white people? I'm going to tell you what's going to happen. Oh, Paul, I can't say anything.
I have bills to pay. I need money. You don't understand. So, let me tell you what I understand.
You don't think that I've lost business because of this? Hm. That's cute. That's really naive of you. I'm not here to kick your ass and tell you it's okay.
That's not what this is about. This is a wakeup call, white people. You need a kick in your ass. And some of you need, too.
You don't think that I've had people in my life cuss me out because I'm standing on business because I'm doing what's necessary?
You don't think so?
Sure I have. And I don't give a damn because I'm not going to sit by and watch people what white people have done for hundreds of years to black people and sit by in their damn silence. I'm not going to do that. I refuse to be that person. And I'm not going to use the [ __ ] excuse of I need money. I need money. We all need money. I'm not a millionaire. I pay my mortgage just like everybody else. I make my insurance payments, my healthc care payments, all of it.
But Paul, look at your backyard. What about my backyard? What?
You You want to know something? What's interesting?
When I grew up, my stepdad had three jobs. We were poor. or we slept in a Suburban and we slept on the ground in tents with scorpions cuz we couldn't even afford to go out to eat. We ate out of a cooler. We were broke.
When I worked at UPS, you know how poor I was?
I used to have to walk 5.2 miles to work each way to UPS because I couldn't afford a bike or a or a car for what three years. I was broke.
I finally got a car and then one time I couldn't make my rent so I had to sell my PlayStation at a pawn shop just to pay rent. Another time, my spawn comic book collection. When I first got married, my first table was what? A cardboard box on a floor with a white sheet. So don't you come up here tell me, Paul, you don't understand. I've lived I lived being poor. Do I pay my electric bill? Do I eat? So stop the [ __ ] with the victimhood. I've been broke.
But you know what I'm not going to do?
I'm not going to sit by like every white person's done since 16, 19, the vast majority of them. Maybe not all of them.
It's sit by and watch this happen. Well, Paul, you don't understand. I can't talk to my mom. Why? Because you don't want to be uncomfortable. That's the problem.
Black people don't have that luxury.
Immigrants don't have that luxury.
Latinos, Somalians, Muslims, they don't have that luxury to shutting their mouth because people that look like me with red hats, they're white supremacists and they treat them like crap. You know why they get away with it? Because white people let it happen.
doesn't affect me. Oh, I didn't see that. Oh, I can't say anything. I have bills to pay. I can't be uncomfortable.
What if you were black? Have you ever thought about that? Because that's why I do this. What if that happened to me? H do you even know what the talk is? It's when black parents have to tell their kids what's going to happen when a white cop at some point is going to pull them overnight just because they're black.
Oh, you know, oh, it was a it was a violation at a turn. Yeah, sure, whatever. They were black. Your house isn't redlined. Your house isn't appraised at a different price. You're not called the n-word. You're not looked at differently. People don't cross the street when you walk down. Your house isn't redlined. You're not treated differently. That's privilege.
Are you going to just sit by and watch this happen because of money?
Is that the kind of person you want to be? Look back in 20 years. When I was in Germany, they had little bronze squares.
There was a German word and I forgot what it was, but basically it was where the Jewish people were taken from their homes by Hitler during the World War.
And their neighbors stood by and watched it happen. Oh, sorry. I have bills to pay. I can't fight for you. I don't want to be uncomfortable. And there was a story that stuck out and it really made made me think about what Americans are.
and it was a farmer. And she goes, "I knew what was happening, but I was still able to sell my goods off the farm, the milk and the butter. So, I ignored it and I did what was best for me."
That's white privilege. It doesn't affect me.
And we're here from 250 years of white people saying, "It doesn't affect me. I don't give a [ __ ] It's their problem.
No, it's not. It's an American problem.
Those are our black brothers and sisters.
And we have [ __ ] on them for too long.
And you're right. This is not a comfortable conversation. And I don't care. And you know what it's really going to break your brains? America is not a great country.
It was founded on slavery, lynchings, Jim Crow, three-fifths clause.
burning down Black Wall Street, treating black people like their dogs, putting black people in wills like their property. What in the hell is great about that? It's not.
But white people have said, "Oh, this is great. Look, we have a flag. Oh, look at this God Bless America song. Oh, look, red, white, and blue. Oh, a bald eagle.
Oh, look, freedom wedies. Oh, we're the best." No, we're not. And if you don't like it, that's too bad.
The only way you can fix something if you get sick is to go to the doctor and get the diagnosis and then you can treat it. And for all of you white people that don't like it, you're welcome to go back on the Mayflower and ship your ass back to England if you don't like what I'm saying. Facts don't care about your feelings. You don't want to believe that it's not a great country. It's not. I was just over there. They don't have school shootings.
They don't do active shooter drills.
They don't have white supremacy like we do. They have universal healthcare as long as they need. You go to Germany, free college. It's all included. You know why? Because your tax dollars are used to benefit their citizens. That's not socialism. That's called a working democracy.
That's called a good quality of life.
But what Americans have done over here is that we've traded a good quality of life for a dollar. And that's exactly why white people won't do a damn thing for black people. And it's disgusting.
Love thy neighbor as thyself. Really?
Why don't you act as if you were in that concentration camp? Because right now, 34 people have already died in concentration camps. The guards are taking bets who's going to take their life next in a concentration camp.
Little girls are so depressed they're trying to cut their wrist with plastic knives.
They're eating moldy bread, broccoli with worms in it. But I'm sorry, white people. Yeah, I'd hate for you to to go on a strike and actually stop what's happening because you have bills to pay. Would you say that if your mom or your child was in a concentration camp or would you move heaven and earth?
And that's the problem.
There is a problem with empathy in this damn country.
That we only give a [ __ ] when something affects us. And you know how that ends?
First they came for the socialists, but I wasn't a socialist. No, let's make this American. First they came for the black people said 1619. But I wasn't black, so I just ignored the lynchings.
And then they came for the Native Americans, but I wasn't a Native American, so I ignored Wounded Knee in the Trail of Tears. And then they came for the Asians, but I wasn't Asian. They were in a tournament camps for years. But hey, there's nothing I could do because I'm not Asian. Then they came for the immigrants, but I wasn't an immigrant, even though ICE took my neighbor right next to me, so I didn't say anything.
Then they came for the Somalians in New York City, but I didn't say anything.
And then they murdered two of my citizens with ICE agents. But hey, I'm not them. I had to work. I needed money.
And that's what we're doing. Again, white people are choosing capitalism and financial comfort because we don't want to be uncomfortable. I've lost friends and family over this and I don't care.
Why are you worried about them? Could I ask? And I mean this genuinely.
You are really worried about upsetting a parent, a brother, a sister that voted for a rapist for a president that is defending child molesters that molested 15year-old girls. A man who's a felon who told so many lies about an election that five officers died after January 6th. Those are the people that you're worried about upsetting. That's cute.
You may want to choose better friends and family because I don't want to be around people like that. And that is standing on business. I'm willing to be uncomfortable.
Ben Parker, who was Peter Parker's uncle, he told Spider-Man something that's very relevant. With great power comes great responsibility.
And white people, that's you. Whether you like it or not, you have privilege.
So do I.
But for too long, white people have just put it in their back pocket because they don't want to be uncomfortable.
So what's it going to be, America? White people, are you going to let democracy burn to the ground because you need money? Yeah, I got bills to pay, Paul.
Oh, you don't understand. I do understand. I told you my story. I've lived it my entire life. I've lived it.
And I'm doing it right now by making this video. Pissing off a lot of white people. You don't think I get nasty comments and emails? Because I'm willing to be uncomfortable, I'm willing to get into good trouble. Are you? Or do you just want to sit in your white privilege and one day in 20 years if we still have a democracy, we're going to have bronze squares like they did in Nazi Germany for all the immigrants that white people stood by and watched it happen because I needed money.
You could be on the right side of history or the white side of history.
The choice is yours, America. But this is not a black person's problem. This is an American problem. It is more specifically a white silence problem.
Have a white day.
