The M.O. has remained the same. The white elite and their working poor and not so poor devotees have perpetuated hate and proven their disdain for POC in many incidents since the genocide and decimation of the native-American nations.
The Ayn Rand white supremacist devotees and their tools have agitated and pursued 'Manifest Destiny' from day one to the detriment and misery of all not in their tribal/racial group.
The Flint poisoned lead filled water "crisis" is but the latest proof of the hate and disdain that a lot of Americans hold for minorities in general. The Yale-New Haven teachers institute has a study 'The Negro Holocaust: Lynchings and Race Riots in the United States, 1880-1950 that proves my point. And here 65 years later from the end of that study young and not so young male and female black americans are still being killed and poisoned for no other reason than they are from the black and minority communities.
This can't continue. And if so, why? When will the racists of this country realize, you can't shoot, poison, hang, imprison or make all black people fear your ability to hate and KILL. Sooner or later that ability to cause misery and death for so many for so long will destroy you.

(16,286 posts)last I heard, would have been released INSTANTLY if this was a white upper middle class area.
Environmental racism isnt new, but this time maybe the criminal will go to jail, but probably not.
The deep and vicious hatred of ALL minorities by that group you speak of, now includes any white person who speaks out.
But now since it isnt only Black who have been harmed in Flint and the other places this is happening, maybe white folks will rethink their racism and see the oligarchs for who they are.
No matter the location.........the oligarchs only worry about power, profit and control. The sooner a majority of people understand that fact, the sooner either change will happen, or the monied class will show their true hand and people will realize none of us reallymatter to that class except as consumers and cannon fodder.
