Hello again Ricoroark, and thanks for responding!

I applaud your desire to work together and live in harmony with your fellow man, but I think we're getting a shade off of the point which is relevant to this article, to whit: racism is bad and we should condemn it. As long as we can agree on that, I'm sure we can agree on other things, but that's pretty much my key point here, and to be entirely frank, I'm not particularly interested in going down other rabbit holes within the context of this article. That's how discussions get diluted and turn unproductive.

To address your concern, though, I have a couple of questions, and I hope you will give them due consideration:

What do you think makes something a "big" problem?

What evidence would it take to convince you that racism, including systemic racism, is such a thing?

Cheers, and happy Monday,

Allen
