AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>At this point, I think the degree to which bald-faced racial animus and white nationalist ideology helps form the very core of what the Trump regime does on a day to day basis, makes it ridiculously irresponsible not to discuss the open white supremacy underpinning those actions when reporting on them. I think we're all aware that Donald Trump and the vast majority of his administration are committed racists, but when politically-empowered racists start devoting the immense power of the state to prosecuting white grievance, and re-establishing an ethno-nationalist legal, political, and social order, that should be front page news no matter how many times it has already come up before. Take for example the relative lack of media uproar about the news that Trump's Department of Justice is launching what's effectively an "anti-Affirmative Action or DEI" investigation into the Black Democrat Mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson for literally hiring Black people, in a minority majority city.</p><p><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/chicago-mayor-brandon-johnson-justice-department-investigation-black-rcna207840" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nbcnews.com/politics/justice-d</span><span class="invisible">epartment/chicago-mayor-brandon-johnson-justice-department-investigation-black-rcna207840</span></a></p><p>Justice Department to investigate Chicago after mayor's remarks about hiring Black officials</p><p>"The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said Monday that it was opening an investigation into the city of Chicago after Mayor Brandon Johnson's comments Sunday highlighting prominent Black officials in his administration.</p><p>Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon wrote in a letter to Johnson posted on X that she had “authorized an investigation” into whether Chicago is “engaged in a pattern or practice of discrimination” following Johnson’s remarks at a church Sunday.</p><p>“If these kind of hiring decisions are being made for top-level positions in your administration, then it begs the question of whether such decisions are also being made for lower-level positions,” Dhillon wrote.</p><p>Johnson said in remarks at Apostolic Church of God that the deputy mayor, the chief operations officer, the budget director and others are all Black people. Johnson said some of his detractors criticize him by saying the only thing he talks about "is the hiring of Black people."</p><p>“No, what I’m saying is when you hire our people, we always look out for everybody else," he said."</p><p>Alright so bear with me for a moment because the amount of racist petulant adult baby shit going on here is significant, and I'm not sure the quoted passage does it justice. The (un)Civil Rights division of Trump's Justice Department is investigating the Mayor of Chicago for crimes against whiteness because he highlighted the effectiveness of hiring Black people in a city that's roughly 65% non-white, and 30% Black, while speaking at a Black majority church. So, what normal people would call "political campaigning." </p><p>As the article goes on to note, the announcement of this investigation comes despite the raw demographic data showing only a slim majority of Black employees among the Mayor's Office staff:</p><p>"According to the mayor’s office, white and Black employees are a majority of staff members, with 30.5% of employees identifying as white and 34.3% identifying as Black."</p><p>So, the Trump administration is harassing the Mayor of a majority-minority city winger racists have been demonizing for years, because Johnson hired a staff that looks more or less like the community he serves, demographically. Of course there's a little more backstory here, because Mayor Johnson has been critical of Trump's racism and racist policies; to which any rational person should probably respond "well, good for him; at least he got something right given how poorly his tenure as Mayor has gone." The reality here however is that someone inside the Trump regime heard a Black Mayor brag about hiring Black leaders in his administration at a Black Church and decided that was probably a race crime against whiteness. Normally, the story would end there, with a note that "crackers believe the weirdest shit" but because this is a white nationalist government prepared to move heaven and earth to prosecute white grievance, here we are. </p><p>I sincerely hope the reason media minions are missing the point of this story isn't that Trump sent out the Indian-American lady to announce the threat on Johnson; we're far too late in the game for "but they have a minority friend" to carry water. Maybe folks don't want to talk about Brandon Johnson because he's a bad Mayor, who ran as a progressive, and has more or less let down all the people who brought him to power in Chicago. That's fair, but when the Trump administration is using the Department of Justice to target its political opposition for blatantly racist reasons, Very Serious People TM in the discourse could at least use that story to stop equivocating about whether or not these guys really are cracker nazis, doing cracker nazi shit.</p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/IdeologicalPolicing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IdeologicalPolicing</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Racism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiateNationalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiateNationalism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Chicago" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Chicago</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/BrandonJohnson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BrandonJohnson</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/PoliticalIntimidation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliticalIntimidation</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/JusticeDepartment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JusticeDepartment</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/HarmeetDhillon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HarmeetDhillon</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/WhiteGrievance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteGrievance</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AffirmativeAction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AffirmativeAction</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DEI</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nazis</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History May 17, 1954: Brown v. Board of Education went into effect. In this case, the Supreme Court ruled that "separate but equal" public education was unconstitutional, and a violation of the 14th Amendment. The ruling reversed the 1896 "separate but equal" Plessy vs Ferguson decision. However, researchers at Stanford and USC have recently found that, in spite of this SCOTUS ruling, racial segregation in the nation’s 100 largest school districts has increased by 64% since 1988, while economic segregation increased by 50% since 1991. While residential segregation was a major driving force for school segregation in the past, the primary driving force for today’s segregation is the School Choice movement, which has allowed hundreds of charter schools to open up, many for-profit. During the 2021-2022 school year, 7.4% of all public-school students, 3.7 million kids, attended charter schools. And there tends to be much more segregation within charter schools. Additionally, there has been a decline in court oversight of segregation in schools, resulting from a number of lawsuits in the 1990s against affirmative action policies.</p><p><a href="Https://www.vox.com/24156492/school-segregation-increasing-brown-board-of-education" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible"></span><span class="ellipsis">Https://www.vox.com/24156492/s</span><span class="invisible">chool-segregation-increasing-brown-board-of-education</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/segregation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>segregation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>racism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/schools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>schools</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/charterschools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>charterschools</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SCOTUS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SCOTUS</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/affirmativeaction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>affirmativeaction</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poverty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>poverty</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/classwar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>classwar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/schoolchoice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>schoolchoice</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/privatization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>privatization</span></a></p>

I'm glad to see that it's coming to an end.</p><p>(Here's a short piece from Prof. Loury, <a href="https://glennloury.substack.com/p/the-indignities-of-affirmative-action" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">glennloury.substack.com/p/the-</span><span class="invisible">indignities-of-affirmative-action</span></a> ; it's not hard to find him discussing the issue at in greater detail.)</p><p><a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a></p>
