There's an important lesson to be learned here, for me anyway.
For almost all my life, it was an unquestionable truth that the white liberal was the black man's best friend. Then I find out that, no, they've done a lot of things that ended up destructive to the black community. Then I find it it was all on purpose. Then I find out this has been known and spoken of publicly for at least 60 years by people like Malcolm X.
I spin around and think, "Well Jesus, what the hell else have I missed?" And I come to realize virtually everyone lives in some level of a fake reality that is unquestionably and entirely real to them.
You end up looking around at people and thinking, "I wonder what color the sky is in their world?"
