Apparently, some ww over on the clock app is ranting about how she and her fellow r@cists are tired of putting with Black people.
She referred to this condition as "Black Fatigue"
But, here's the thing. . .
That term was coined in 2008 by Mary-Francis Winters. She wrote a book on the subject.

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!
If you voted for Trump you don’t get to say Cinco de Mayo. It’s May 5th to you.
Make sure you don’t have tequila, chips and salsa or anything like that because you don’t want that as a part of our country!!
You want to whitewash America right, maga?!!

One of the primary goals of Pr0ject 2025 and MAGA is to restore white supremacy to it's pre-1960 "glory days."
There is no other reason for the elimination of DEI, removing information about notable BIPOC members of the armed services, the mass deportation of Black and Brown people.

As I was repotting my orchids, I started thinking about protest, namely, the lack of any wide-scale-take-to-the-streets-general-strike-shut-it-all-down type of protest. The kind we've seen time and time again from people across the pond.

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts
The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.
