Why expecting racial justice ?

Western everyday life is tinged with ‘’white supremacism’’ feelings, I am afraid. Of course, the man in the street may also ‘’claim to condemn’’ these feelings.

But is white supremacism condemned explicitely in western History books ? (about American Indians, European ex-colonies in Africa, Middle East, etc) Or are facts partially evaded, erased, embellished, justified ?

Does the General Public Media explicitely demonstrate the need for justice (racial & otherwise) ? Or do they prefer to spread (democratically) the different views ?

And what about our various Holy Books ? Do they condemn explicitely slavery ? Do they unequivocably suggest that all human Groups are equal & deserve equal rights ?

Talking of International Laws (which we all approved), are we not OK with the governments which we elect, when they consider that these Universal Laws does not apply to ‘’our kind’’, where/when it is convenient for us ?

Therefore, should we blame the average bloke for being lost in the middle of this well structured anarchy ? Probably not. Maybe should we hope that people will vote with their brain, and not anymore with their guts ?

Anyway, if the average bloke was to become better informed, the Financial (& Other) powers will soon make sure that they will be fed with the « appropriate » informations, and that ‘’appropriate’’ measures will be taken to defend them against foreign ennemies… in order to defend Democracy and Human Rights everywhere on earth and in its environs.

I am sure that there is no world plot. It just happen that the people in power everywhere in the western world think in similar ways. They do not need to talk to each-other to act in similar ways.
