President Trump has nominated Amy Coney Barrett to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg on America’s Supreme Court. She is an orthodox Catholic and as such her convictions on issues such as abortion are hardly in keeping with the political Left. Married to fellow Notre Dame graduate Jesse, they have seven children, two of whom are adopted Haitian kids. While reaction to her nomination was predictably rambunctious, the following statement by Black author Ibram X. Kendi drew more than its share of criticism from the Right:
“Some White colonizers “adopted” Black children. They “civilized” these “savage” children in the “superior” ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial…..”
Kendi, whom I have already mentioned, is the author of 2019’s “How to Be An Antiracist,” a work heralded by the N.Y. Times as the most “courageous” book to date on the subject of Racism. Yet every word he writes drips of Racial Envy! We are dealing in generalizations here, but History unequivocally illustrates that Life in the Democratic West is significantly more “civilized,” significantly less “savage” and indeed demonstrably “superior” to life in many other parts of the world. This fact has apparently affected Kendi’s sanity. So completely irrational is he that, knowing nothing of the personal life of Amy and her husband, knowing nothing of the compassion that may have motivated them, he accuses them of adopting two Black kids out of sheer hypocrisy or perhaps to assuage their well-deserved White, Western, Colonialist sense of Guilt.
He is literally a compendium of postmodern, “progressive” cliches, the notion that any one way of approaching the world may in fact be distinctly superior to another being completely beyond his relativist, racist, angry “We’re just as fucking good as them” mentality. Naturally he is revered by both the mainstream media and academia!
