Being aware (educated) and honest about our caste-based foundations as a country, and rectifying them as we go forward in alignment with our Constitution and Bill of Rights, will be the most profound accomplishment our truly multicultural country could ever strive for.
We are a young country, in our ego-centric adolescent stage, where the White Myth is screaming for survival, and its' petrified cries and blatant lies and revisions are impossible to ignore if we are to remain a democracy. We The People are finally maturing into full adulthood as a nation. We are learning as a large mass about the lies we perpetuate and are ingrained in our culture and society. We cannot unsee what we now see or be ignorant of our white privilege and our caste system.
If you keep a nation dumbed down via education, mind-numbing tv, and now lying rallies and media, they are much, much easier to control and manipulate. The previous occupiers of our country have proven that with their mafia-like lifestyles and oligarchic, conspiratorial funding by hostile foreign countries. That playbook worked in 1930's Germany and with the 30% of Americans that want to be falsely superior. If more Americans knew and understood the rise and fall and rise again of fascism and autocracy the Great Liars would have been relegated to the dustbin of history. May that be their destiny, still.
The ancient Romans knew it as well: panem et circenses. Keep their bellies full and their minds occupied with trivialities, and the people are easy to rule.
180 days of public holidays towards the end with games each time at which of course bread was distributed free...the only way many of the spectators could eat.

Yes, we need to keep white Americans fearful and angry in order to continue the ingrained white supremacy that keeps other groups "inferior."
