US ambassador tells her story of racism, schools Chinese but good

[The Hill] U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield and a Chinese diplomat clashed on Friday after Greenfield, who is Black, described her own experience with racism during a U.N. General Assembly meeting.

Thomas-Greenfield said at the meeting, meant to mark the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, that while she has faced racism in her life, racism in countries like China has proven deadly.

"I know the ugly face of racism. I lived racism, I have experienced racism and I have survived racism," she said.

"Racism is the problem of the racist. And it is the problem of the society that produces the racist. And in today’s world that is every society," she continued.

"Racism was and continues to be a daily challenge wherever we are. And for millions, it’s more than a challenge. It’s deadly."

She pointed to Myanmar, "where Rohingya and others have been oppressed, abused, and killed in staggering numbers," and China, "where the government has committed genocide and crimes against humanity against Uighurs and members of other ethnic and religious minority groups in Xinjiang," a region in northwest China.

#1 "Racism was and continues to be a daily challenge wherever we are"

All God's chilluns got racism
Racism makes the world go round
Racism here, racism there
Racism racism under the stair
Racism = all ye know on earth, and all he need to know
Which way I fly, am racism
Myself am racism

#2 I know and sympathize. It was either UN Ambassador or piecework picking vegetables for Boss Hogg.

#3 The world is laughing at America and its moronic leaders now.

Bad enough that these birdbrains inflicted burn-loot-murder on us and stole an election, but now they're projecting weakness and stupidity to our enemies. This foolishness is making war much more likely
