Lightfoot: : “I am a black woman — let’s not forget,” she told the outlet. “Certain folks, frankly, don’t support us in leadership roles."
She forgot to say that she's a black LESBIAN woman. I mean, c'mon Mayor, if you're going to play the victim, at least have the good sense to check ALL the boxes.
Is "certain people," a racist comment?

I'm just so tired of all the racism. It's all I can do to get out of bed in the morning and vote Democrat.

It's hard to believe that the most powerful black lesbian in Chicago could consider herself a victim.
But there was a time where the most powerful man in the world considered himself a victim of the same racism.

Who can forget the Covid riots in Chicago the weekend after George Floyd died of covid?
I am grateful that I haven't poured any coffee yet!

“A few months ago they said they didn’t know who I was. Well, if you didn’t know, now you know,” Johnson said. He thanked the unions that supported him and gave a special shout-out to his wife, telling the crowd, “Chicago, a Black woman will still be in charge.”
I wonder how many generations America will have to survive before this skin color fetish seems like a bizarre anachronism.

Realistically the subcultures would have to completely merge/disappear. At least I believe that's what it would take.

And, I wonder how many generations America will have to survive before. . . everyone's skin color will be the same.
I remember as a kid hearing how the slow intermix of races would eventually lead to one brownish race, with watered-down features. And, we'd run out of oil by 2020. Or maybe it was that oil would end up being the same color by 2020 regardless of which race.
