Races Are Not Different Say The Kneeling NFL Players. The Races Are Not Different But White People Can Be Treated Different Says….. Affirmative Action

The Plessy v. Ferguson Supreme Court decision of 1896, approved government sponsored segregation.  Following the millions killed during the bloody American Civil war, the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution guaranteed equal protection under the law to all citizens, and the government began to to force the integration of former slaves into white society.

Why Race Matters said that Slavery penalized white people who were deprived of the invention and use of advanced labor-saving devices. 

“Separate but Equal” was overturned by the 1954 U.S. Supreme Court in  Brown v. Board of Education  but the kneeling NFL players make the case that black people aren’t satisfied with their treatment by the police. They don’t accept the  police treatment of black people, especially young black males who are 8 times more likely to be incarcerated than other raced people. The NFL kneelers don’t like some of the laws and the rules of America so they feel justified in not obeying them.

Considerable documentation for the differences of race are in “Why Race Matters.”  From Amazon: “Author and philosopher Michael Levin has delivered one of the most authoritative and incisive treatises ever written on the importance of race. Why Race Matters is must reading for anyone interested in race, IQ, crime, welfare, affirmative action, and multiculturalism. Levin analyzes statistics, psychological test scores, and behavioral genetics data, brilliantly illuminating the logical pitfalls in so much of what is written about race. His powerful logic digs deep and his courageous inferences vault forward. With panache and occasional humor, Levin seems to be always on target. — J. Philippe Rushton, University of Western Ontario Why Race Matters does everything the title promises—it removes all illusions about the insignificance of race, and explains what racial differences mean for a multiracial society. It is a thorough, overwhelmingly convincing treatment of America’s most serious and least understood problem. — Jared Taylor, Editor, American Renaissance”.
