“To cut short the question of the law of retaliation, we
must note that even in its primitive form it can operate only between two
individuals of whom one is absolutely innocent, and the other absolutely
guilty. The victim, to be sure, is innocent. But can the society that is
supposed to represent the victim lay claim to innocence?” – Albert Camus

Comment: The Politics of Racism. To say that Donald Trump is a racist is to
state the obvious but miss the point.
Hate crimes jumped about 17 percent in 2017 from the year
before, according to FBI stats released in November. More than 7,000 individual
hate crimes were reported to the agency that year by local law enforcement.
About 60 percent were prompted by bias over race, ethnicity, or ancestry; 21
percent by religion and 16 percent by sexual orientation. It was the third consecutive year to see an
increase in the number of hate crimes, going back to 2015, when Donald Trump
declared his candidacy for President.
The stats for 2018 will not be available until next fall, but all signs
point to it being another banner year for hate in America. Consider these
headlines from 2018:
Striking Steel: “No matter how many centuries have been
devoted to the official story that black people are shameful, we have been the
grace note of American history. And yet if I am honest, shame is what I feel.
Not in blackness though, in Americanness.”
