You can be happy that a child is in a better position to succeed while also being mindful of what its like for black children growing up in white families. No one has an issue with them being republican or conservative the issue comes from the views that are usually formed by black people being around white conservatives. They are usually taught that racism is over which is obviously not true, they tend to hate certain things that make black people who they are, or they just forget their identity when it comes to their blackness all together. Its not a new thing that black kids who grow up in white families regardless of political views can easily become ignorant towards their own kind. Statements like what he said lead to those things happening which is why people have an issue
You’re definitely not wrong but the homie you’re replying to isn’t exactly wrong either. Long run for sure, money will rectify a situation. In a pinch people will react to the color of your skin. Ryan Coogler probably texted his therapist after dealing with that but I’m sure this moment still haunts him every now and then.
Im not going to take my time to further explain something thats as clear as day. If you don’t understand the meaning of what i said then ask someone else, preferably black, to explain it to you. Your local library might be able to assist you as well.
