Why do you assume either I or the Black community -fwiw, I don't have the honor of being Black- are asking you to place Black people at "the center of (your) universe" or bury your nose in that particular part of Black people's anatomy? There's no possible way it could be that threatening to you to do what they actually ask of you- admit that racism is systemic in this country, especially among the police- and that a major part of Trump's appeal to white people is his indulgence of the paranoid delusions that A) anytime black or brown people gain anything in this society, they've only gained it by stealing something that rightfully belongs to white people; B) White people and "white culture"- whatever that means- are somehow in danger of being "erased"; and C) That Black, Brown and White peple can only live in a personal and cultural hierarchy, never as equals, which the majority of my fellow whites take to mean that we must hold power over Black and Brown people or live at their mercy.

From what I can see, the main thing most Black or Brown people would like from us is, quite simply, that we chill the hell out about them- that we just not treat them as though they are inherently more violent or dangerous than us, that we stop freaking out about them living in the same neighborhoods or sometimes the same country as us, that we stop being so obsessed with imposing the ridiculous idea that "our" culture represents the "Only" American culture.

Do you honestly equate any of that with an entire race telling you to stick your nose where the sun don't shine?
