re: Before all this woke stuff started several years ago, didn’t race relations seem good?

If that's all you judge race relations on then of course you'll think nothing is wrong.
Why does something have to be wrong? Are people supposed to go out of their way looking for things to be wrong?
Pretty miserable way to live. Always looking for problems.

We should instead judge race relations on twitter activity and Lebron’s feelings.

If you're only going to use your small daily interactions then it's like judging the murder rate by whether you got killed today.

President Obama is an adherent to a Marxist view of American Declinism. Suddenly everything in 2009 became A HUGE PROBLEM THAT HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED (!!!!!). Thus we find ourselves in 2020, in the best country for blacks and ALL LIVES to be led, and it is portrayed by our Ruling Class as a dystopian racial nightmare. It is Obama's most enduring legacy-the triumph of Marxist Race Grievance in our lifetime.
I will be married to a Vietnamese woman 26 years this November. We have had and raised three kids. We have not really found it necessary to even discuss race, let alone OBSESSS ABOUT IT, and let it guide our entire view of our country and life. Race is really not that big of a deal, and in 2008 when optimism reigned and people foolishly believed Obama would usher in even greater racial harmony, we really did seem to be entering a post-racial era. And now it's absolute ORCHESTRATED racial separatism and grievance everywhere. It may literally at this moment be the largest not-called-Amazon Industry in America. That's how people need to think about this deca-billion dollar industry as a RACE GRIEVANCE INDUSTRY.

Being killed would only happen once. Don't think that is an accurate assessment of this scenario.
Why should people have to fret and worry about every little issue in the world, country, state, parish, city etc...? Most people don't live for drama, some do.

People who were not raised around black people, likely went to private schools and live in gated communities get to tell everyone including blacks how race works.
You should have seen my instagram feed back in May. I'll of my high school friends, who grew up in a 99% white community in the Northwest felt the need to lecture me on race realtions and "doing better"
That's how you know it's an illusion

They were good. And, I might add, getting better all the time....in my world anyway. Obama was poison, as are the schools that are weened on government money....that compromises local school boards and their members. Education generally is a domain of liberal faculties and professors. Continuously picking at a scab will ultimately open a mending wound.

Race relations today are better than ever today. This is just a flash point currently, not some permanent state.
You can take a snapshot of different aspects of society if you want and say things are worse than ever if that's what you want to do. That's not the world I experience. The current tension is a temporary state that will pass. Hate to use this term but people become prisoners of the moment too often.

It's still better than it looks on TV I interact with black people everyday like most everyone else in southern cities Haven't noticed any uptick in animosity
this is the truth. Turn off the tv and go outside and people get along no matter color, race, or gender.

I haven't noticed that either. Most people don't need to be told how to treat one another....It's really not difficult to be kind to others. Those who don't are the outlier, thankfully....

All of this racial tension is promoted by the democrats and the media to divide people ahead of the November election. This is about power, nothing more.
