Get Out was a film that dared to reveal the horror of liberal racism in America The villains here aren t neo Nazi skinheads or southerners from red states They re middle class white liberals The kind of people who read this newspaper The kind of people who shop at Whole Foods donate to the NAACP and would have voted for Obama a third time if they could The kind of people who protest black elected officials who are not aligned with their ideologies This same liberal anti Independent Democrat Conference IDC crowd created a fake website using Black Lives Matter in a derogatory manner The three black and brown IDC members are attacked constantly by white liberal groups online and offline with some groups even sending hate mail to their home addresses I will call out racism as I see hear and breathe it We cannot be shielded from the reality that beyond white racism is white privilege and obliviousness that cannot be excused I attempted to talk to one of the anti IDC protesters about Senator Hamilton to no avail I told him he had a problem of white privilege The harsh reality is that people in a position of privilege benefit more from ignoring marginalized perspectives than listening to them They don t understand as people of color we face racism daily
