Touré: Trump’s War on Woke Is All About ‘White Greatness’ and ‘Erasing Black History’

EXCERPT:

TOURÉ: “Yeah, I mean, he talks about American greatness, and clearly he means white greatness, and we are erasing black history. I mean, I didn’t realize that the Smithsonian, the Black History Museum, was part — I mean, like, obviously, but I didn’t read that yet, and it almost makes me want to cry because that is such an incredibly important space. I took my children and my wife there, like, as soon as it opened. And like, I studied Af-Am in college, and I learned a lot going through that museum, and it’s deeply emotional and moving. And to say, ‘We don’t want to talk about the history of racism...’ — that is part of American greatness. It’s part of America’s evil, but the way we have moved from enslavement to segregation to wherever we are now or wherever we were a few years ago is part of America’s greatness, and it’s part of Americas real story. And to say we’re going to erase this and just focus on what white people have done, that’s not what America is.”
