Reply #131: wrong demonstrations?

[Two Americas]

Millions have been in the streets recently, including the largest political demonstration ever in the history of the city of Los Angeles, demanding equality and justice. This went largely unnoticed by the white liberals and progressives.

One of the most stunning and bizarre disconnections I have ever seen in politics was recently when millions were marching, and at the same time I heard and read white liberals saying "what oh what will it take to get the stupid sheeple out into the streets?"

I have not seen many white-haired people at those marches - haven't seen much of anything that was white at those marches. There have been many, many young people participating.

I also noticed many young people at the Million Man March a few years back.

The focus by upscale and relatively privileged white liberals on a grab bag of isolated causes will always be limited in its appeal, and blaming the people for that is a political mistake.
