Racism is a lot of things. One thing it is not:
A white child, aged five, executed by a black man with a shot to the head, as the tyke rode his bike. Ask the cultural cognoscenti. They’ll tell you: That’s never racism.
Otherwise, almost anything involving the perpetually aggrieved black community counts as racism.
Students hoist a “thin blue line” flag in solidarity with police: racism.
A black male is asked for his driver’s license: racism. Of course it’s systemic. Are you stupid, or something?
A white politician proclaims that “all lives matter”: Come again? Are you kidding me?!
A museum curator fails to commit to the exclusion of the art of white men, including, presumably, the Old Masters: not racism; white supremacism. Be gone with you, Rembrandt and Vermeer.
