Nothing exposed the racism in the societies like the Covid19 did. Nothing exposed the hidden racism as the Covid19 did. Nothing exposed the racism in the healthcare as the Covid19 did. Nothing, not even all the preachments from times past, exposed the impact of racism on minority's poor populations as the Covid19 did.
What was hidden was exposed. The stinking waste matter smeared and covered under the carpet started to stink for all to smell. It was indeed a foul smell. The deniers of racism were exposed for their pretend denials and for the lies they told. The design to keep certain segments of society down while elevating others was all laid bare for the world to see. The hypocrisy was laid bare. And the world saw the dirty linens.
The Hidden Barriers in the Setup were exposed. Why did our societies degenerate to this level? Greed? This is more like it. Greed is good for those at the top. Greed is good for the few landowners represented by corporations now. The rich have a need to create an imaginary enemy. They do not want to be seen as the enemy just like the corporations don't want you to know that they manage the world's resources for a select few. They hand out some minute resources, here and there to the operators/managers of the corporations, who are the middle class. Thus, the middle class thinks they are buddy-buddy with the landowners. The landowners must provide an incentive so as to maintain a grip at their corporations, so the design is to make the middle class believe that the lower class is at that level because they are lazy and seeking handouts. Were black people lazy during slavery? Did black folks seek handouts during slavery? Of course, they received handouts in shapes of chit lings, pig feet and cow feet. How all of a sudden, blacks became lazy, as soon as slavery was over. Can you begin to see the design now?By design? It is a design hidden in plain sight. Many people cannot see it. Those who see it, are incapable of doing anything about it because by design, the whole plot has been legislated into law. Jim Crow laws. We have a history of normalizing inhumaneness and other bad things with laws. Just like apartheid, the various governments and departments at many levels justified the discrimination, through laws the oppressed cannot surmount. It was so then and it is so today with little or no legislative modification in sight. Have you ever imagined why the 44th president of United States is having so much problems with the Congress? You think the Congress populated by mostly old white men are giving the black president a tough time because of race? Or, you think they hate the first black president of the union? If you answered yes to any of these questions you are yet to understand the workings of a country, some have christened God's own Country. The fear of a black president undoing four hundred years of discriminative laws, the phobia of taking down the protections of the rich landowners and the enforcers of that protection led to a section of a congress to proclaim from day 1 of the black president's inauguration: if Obama wants it, we reject it right off the bat. This simply means, an opposition to President Obama's policies on all fronts. Some were not hiding their enthusiasm for an Obama failure, they worked for it. They feared an Obama presidency that might implement programs that would invite non-whites to participate thus engaging in capitalism. Slogans like take our country back were dusted up for re-use. It was strategic. They were all noises meant to drown some of Obama's signature programs like the affordable care act, popularly known as Obamacare. It has always been by design.
