AMERICA IS EMPIRE. WITH ALL ITS POWER & PRIVILEGE IT STANDS AS OPPRESSOR. THAT OPPRESSION NOT ONLY EXTENDS OUTWARDS, BUT INWARDS. THIS DARK REALITY IS STILL UNSEEN BY MANY.
DISNEY HAS A LONG HISTORY WITH SUBLIMINAL RACISM. TODAY IS NO DIFFERENT. IT ONLY TAKES SECONDS TO IMPLANT A SUBLIMINAL MESSAGE WHICH CAN LAST A LIFETIME. THE SUBTLETY OF COVERT RACISM CANNOT BE UNDERESTIMATED, IT IS AN INVISIBLE MAGIC.
IN STAR WARS REBELS SEASON THREE, EPISODE FOUR: THE ANTILLES EXTRACTION, WEDGE, RAKE, & HOBBY ATTEMPT TO DEFECT FROM THE EMPIRE FLIGHT SCHOOL. YOU CAN GUESS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT.
IN UNDER THREE MINUTES FROM INTRODUCING RAKE, THE FIRST BLACK CHARACTER IN THE SERIES. HE IS KILLED IN ACTION, WHILE THE REMAINING SURVIVORS ARE MIRACULOUSLY LEFT UNHARMED.
THE STAR WARS GALAXY IS UNIMAGINABLE DIVERSITY, BUT DISNEY DOESN’T HAVE ROOM FOR MORE THAN ONE BLACK HERO AT A TIME? THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS MESSAGE TO SEND TO MINORITY YOUTH.
INSTITUTIONAL RACISM HAPPENS ACROSS EVERY FACET OF SOCIETY, FROM EDUCATION, TO ENTERTAINMENT, & IN LAW ENFORCEMENT. COVERT RACISM IS MORE DIFFICULT TO IDENTIFY. THIS SUBLIMINAL CLEARLY ILLUSTRATES, THE SAME INFRACTION COSTS A MINORITY HIS VERY LIFE, BUT IF YOU ARE WHITE YOU WILL BE ALRIGHT.
