Considering I am often racialized as mixed race Black, I don’t know that the answer is so straightforward. But I’m sure that you as a white man would be the ultimate arbiter of all matters of race and racism!

Also, Jews were banned from many establishments as well throughout the 20th century, FYI. And your logic is extremely binary and irrelevant anyways, since Asian and Latinx and Native people would not have been specifically targeted by the same mechanisms of Jim Crow as Black folks anyway.

Not experiencing the precise type or degree of racism as Black people doesn’t mean marginalization or oppression don’t exist. It’s not pie, there’s enough to go around. And it’s not the Olympics either, no one is trying to compete except for white people like you who prefer to sew competition and angst between minorities.
