    O orador reflexiona sobre a súa falta de optimismo respecto á situación racial nos Estados Unidos, pero como pai, busca sempre un lado positivo para dar esperanza aos mozos. Nos últimos oito anos, foi difícil convencer á xente, especialmente aos brancos, de que o racismo era un problema real, a pesar de que un home negro ocupaba a presidencia. Agora, a situación é diferente, xa que a resurgencia do racismo é máis evidente e non é necesario convencer á xente do seu impacto. O orador compara a elección de Donald Trump cun regreso á programación habitual, argumentando que a scapegoating de persoas de cor non é algo novo, senón unha tradición histórica en América. Para loitar contra a injustiza, é fundamental entender a historia e a continuidade do racismo, en vez de consideralo como un fenómeno novo e único.

  • 00:00:04
    those who know my work know that I'm not
  • 00:00:07
    necessarily known for my my sunny and
  • 00:00:10
    cheery optimism about the world and
  • 00:00:13
    particularly as relates to this country
  • 00:00:14
    and as relates to the issue of race and
  • 00:00:18
    yet because I am a father right I always
  • 00:00:22
    try to tease out some optimism out of
  • 00:00:25
    the worst moments that befall us
  • 00:00:28
    as a nation and I do that because I
  • 00:00:30
    think it's important to give young
  • 00:00:32
    people hope right and I've got two of
  • 00:00:34
    these young people in my home that I'm
  • 00:00:36
    responsible for so I'm always looking
  • 00:00:38
    for a silver lining and whatever cloud
  • 00:00:40
    happens to cover right the skies of the
  • 00:00:44
    country and it's real hard to do that
  • 00:00:46
    right now right things are a little
  • 00:00:49
    foreboding and yet I have figured out
  • 00:00:52
    and I don't know if I actually believe
  • 00:00:53
    this like I might totally be fooling
  • 00:00:55
    myself right so you don't have to buy it
  • 00:00:57
    you might I don't even know if I buy it
  • 00:00:58
    but I'm gonna try to tease out some
  • 00:01:00
    optimism of this moment here it is let's
  • 00:01:02
    see how this works right for the last
  • 00:01:05
    eight years as I've gone around the
  • 00:01:07
    country doing this work talking about
  • 00:01:09
    race in America and not just myself
  • 00:01:11
    other people who do this work as well
  • 00:01:12
    for the last eight years we have been
  • 00:01:15
    having to convince people particularly
  • 00:01:17
    to convince white Americans that the
  • 00:01:19
    issue of race and racism was even
  • 00:01:21
    something we had to talk about right
  • 00:01:23
    because people were convinced we didn't
  • 00:01:24
    have to talk about it anymore because a
  • 00:01:26
    black man was president and of course
  • 00:01:27
    how can we have a racism problem when a
  • 00:01:29
    black man is president which of course
  • 00:01:31
    is not something we would say about
  • 00:01:33
    sexism in Pakistan just because a woman
  • 00:01:35
    benazir bhutto became the head of that
  • 00:01:37
    country not once but twice it's not
  • 00:01:39
    something we would say about Great
  • 00:01:40
    Britain just because Margaret Thatcher
  • 00:01:42
    became the head of state
  • 00:01:43
    on several occasions it's not something
  • 00:01:45
    we would say about Germany or Ireland or
  • 00:01:46
    Israel or India or the Philippines all
  • 00:01:48
    of which have had female heads of state
  • 00:01:50
    we wouldn't say sexism was dead in those
  • 00:01:53
    places we wouldn't say misogyny and
  • 00:01:55
    patriarchy had been eradicated there but
  • 00:01:57
    in this country that is sort of what we
  • 00:01:59
    said for eight years about race and
  • 00:02:01
    racism just because a man of color was
  • 00:02:03
    in the White House so for eight years
  • 00:02:05
    it's been like pulling teeth man it's
  • 00:02:07
    like holding people's hands to convince
  • 00:02:09
    them that racism is the thing okay
  • 00:02:11
    here's the good news in this bad moment
  • 00:02:13
    we don't have to convince people of that
  • 00:02:15
    anymore
  • 00:02:16
    right the hand holding the teeth pulling
  • 00:02:20
    right we don't have to do that now
  • 00:02:21
    because it's a little more obvious to
  • 00:02:24
    people now never underestimate the
  • 00:02:25
    ability of white folks to miss stuff
  • 00:02:27
    though right so I'm not saying that
  • 00:02:29
    everybody sees it I'm just saying I
  • 00:02:31
    think it's more obvious now and the good
  • 00:02:33
    news if there is some good news is that
  • 00:02:35
    we don't have to do the 101 right the
  • 00:02:39
    good news if there is some good news is
  • 00:02:41
    that we now have enough evidence the
  • 00:02:42
    resurgence of overt racism not only in
  • 00:02:45
    our politics but around our country the
  • 00:02:47
    resurgence and continuation really of
  • 00:02:50
    systemic injustice ice raids on folks
  • 00:02:52
    that have done nothing to nobody talk of
  • 00:02:55
    building walls but only on this border
  • 00:02:57
    never this board are only this border
  • 00:02:59
    never that border because we're not
  • 00:03:01
    worried about crafty Canadian sneaking
  • 00:03:02
    in to take advantage of our health care
  • 00:03:04
    system I suppose so we have all of this
  • 00:03:07
    overt resurgence of Islamophobia overt
  • 00:03:10
    resurgence of the other ring of those
  • 00:03:12
    who appear and seem or pray or speak
  • 00:03:15
    differently than the dominant group so
  • 00:03:17
    unlike the last eight years where we
  • 00:03:18
    were in this sort of intermission period
  • 00:03:21
    right we're sort of back to the
  • 00:03:24
    continuation of a long-standing
  • 00:03:25
    tradition now some of y'all may remember
  • 00:03:27
    back in the day some of the older folks
  • 00:03:29
    in the room will remember back when
  • 00:03:30
    Sunday football NFL football used to
  • 00:03:34
    only be on CBS
  • 00:03:35
    so before Fox had a license to show
  • 00:03:37
    games and it was just just CBS and they
  • 00:03:41
    were usually two games a day now I live
  • 00:03:43
    in the central time zone so when the
  • 00:03:44
    central time zone I don't know about out
  • 00:03:45
    here but it was 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock
  • 00:03:46
    and the 3 o'clock game if you were on
  • 00:03:50
    the east coast or in the central time
  • 00:03:51
    zone would always bleed over into the 6
  • 00:03:54
    o'clock hours when 60 minutes comes on
  • 00:03:56
    right and so what would happen now if
  • 00:03:58
    you're on the west coast they would show
  • 00:03:59
    it in real time you know because y'all
  • 00:04:01
    were behind a couple hours and so you
  • 00:04:02
    could see it live it didn't interrupt 60
  • 00:04:04
    minutes but if you were on the east
  • 00:04:06
    coast or in central time it would bleed
  • 00:04:07
    over and about 6:15 the game would end
  • 00:04:10
    right and the announcer would come in
  • 00:04:13
    and the voice-over would say and now
  • 00:04:14
    back to your regularly scheduled
  • 00:04:17
    programming right that's sort of what
  • 00:04:19
    the election of Donald Trump is y'all
  • 00:04:21
    just so you know it is back to your
  • 00:04:23
    regularly scheduled programming it's not
  • 00:04:25
    something new it's not a break with
  • 00:04:27
    tradition folks that are trippin on the
  • 00:04:29
    election of Donald Trump
  • 00:04:30
    like somehow this is a deviation from
  • 00:04:32
    America's norm that this is somehow some
  • 00:04:34
    unique horrible break with the history
  • 00:04:37
    of the country no the glitch was the
  • 00:04:39
    eight years of the Obama administration
  • 00:04:41
    this is back to your regularly scheduled
  • 00:04:43
    programming the history of politicians
  • 00:04:46
    scapegoating black and brown folks
  • 00:04:47
    blaming them for problems that they
  • 00:04:49
    didn't create and then getting votes on
  • 00:04:51
    the basis of that that's not new Donald
  • 00:04:53
    Trump didn't create that didn't invent
  • 00:04:55
    that that's been going on for four
  • 00:04:56
    hundred years back to the colonial
  • 00:04:58
    period before we even were a country so
  • 00:05:00
    the first lesson is don't assume that
  • 00:05:02
    what's happened all the sudden is a new
  • 00:05:04
    thing don't be shocked by it this is
  • 00:05:07
    normal for America welcome to your
  • 00:05:09
    country right is what this really is all
  • 00:05:13
    about we have to start with that and we
  • 00:05:15
    have to understand the past and how the
  • 00:05:17
    past connects to the present so that we
  • 00:05:20
    can understand this isn't a unique break
  • 00:05:22
    with history and the reason it's
  • 00:05:23
    important it's not just an academic
  • 00:05:24
    point if you want to fight injustice you
  • 00:05:27
    have to know the injustice that you're
  • 00:05:28
    up against and if you think that it's a
  • 00:05:30
    new thing if you think the monster in
  • 00:05:32
    the room is new and unique it becomes
  • 00:05:34
    disempowering because you don't know how
  • 00:05:36
    to fight that monster if you understand
  • 00:05:38
    that we've seen this monster before that
  • 00:05:40
    we've seen this movie before that
  • 00:05:42
    there's really nothing new about this
  • 00:05:44
    then you can take lessons from our
  • 00:05:45
    history about how to resist and figure
  • 00:05:48
    out how to do that again you see so we
  • 00:05:50
    don't want to build up the monster into
  • 00:05:52
    something bigger than it is we don't
  • 00:05:53
    want to underestimate it but we also
  • 00:05:55
    don't want to give it more power than it
  • 00:05:57
    deserves we have to dissect it and we
  • 00:05:59
    have to understand its continuity not
  • 00:06:01
    its unique rupture with the history of
  • 00:06:03
    this country so let's talk about that
