Wise Words from Bob Ray

Okay, white dudes who are running around acting a fool... Take it from me, an old white dude... you have GOT to CALM DOWN.

That mythical time in the past, when white dudes ran the world... it ain’t comin’ back. It can’t. It’s basic math. We’re not ever gonna be the global majority. We never were. It’s not our world to play with. We have to share it. Hell, we’d better damn well hope that the folks who don’t look like us feel like sharing it with us, because there’s limited space on this ball of dirt, and more and more of it is on fire or under water every day.

Here’s the good news: those people who don’t look or act like you are actually... you may wanna sit down for this... they’re people. Just like you and me. No better, no worse.

So if you wanna identify yourself as a member of the white race, you’re on a team that’s shrinking and dwindling and disappearing. But it’s okay. There’s hope for you. You can join the rest of us in the HUMAN race, and walk into the future on a winning team.

People are people. We’re all more or less the same. Anyone who tells you different is selling something.
