I had a similar interaction with a writer on Medium @martinaspeaks. She could only view the world through the lens of everything had a racist tinge and thought I was disrespecting writers because I suggested by attributing everything to racism and "white" people they are wallowing in victimhood.

They are being controlled by the vocal communities that focus on them being victims of the system racism in the divided states. Instead of focusing on the problem, I suggest they focus on creating a community that would represent the ideals of what they want to achieve. Is there a single community in the divided states that is even close to what the vocal Black community would view as not systematically racists. If they can't point to a single community or how that community would happen, they are just wallowing in victimhood. That view set marnitaspeaks to rail on my with many degrading judgements and epitaths.
