Our White Supremacist Country?

Since the beginning of the United States, our country has shown a great deal of white supremacy, even to this day. Obviously, the intensity of this powerful belief has drastically decreased over the years, but there are still signs of superiority in America. White supremacy is defined as the belief that white people are superior to black people and other people of color, and though a lot of us may not feel this way, our society portrays it exactly like that. Racial representation in the media is a great example of how society illustrates white supremacy. For example, the news. Every news channel that I have watched, I have yet to come around an African American anchor. I mean there are probably some out there but I have never seen one in my life. But not only are all the anchor's white, but a lot of the "criminals" they talk about are black. I know this is a giant generalization, but being someone who watches the news only a couple times a week, I have noticed these patterns. When a white criminal commits a crime, the news briefly states what crime they have committed, but when a black person does the same thing, they show full on chases, like they are wild animals. In my eyes, a great amount of the news consists of white people talking down to other races, white supremacy.

Another definition for the term white supremacy, is a system in which white people have social and political dominance over black people and other people of color. Our country runs off of this system. Finally, for the first time in American history, we have a black President. It honestly took our country this long? The time it took for the MAJORITY of people in our country to finally elect and accept a person of color as President, is proof that white people have political dominance over black people. The word MAJORITY is capitalized because not everyone has accepted it yet, and not everyone has accepted the fact that black people are and can be better than white people because of white supremacy!
