Cox on White Supremacy.

[Greg Nowell]

Cox:

White supremacy has a history (though not, in my view,
a very long
one: I would say that its full flowering only began on
July 4, 1776).

GN:

You might consider the colonization of the Americas by
the Spanish.  It's hard to see what "full flowering" of
racism might be if not that.  And then the British, and
the Dutch, and the French.   There is no U.S.
monopoly.  I doubt that any serious claim could be made
that the US is "more racist" than these societies.  In
today's France, the wearing of the (moslem) veil to
public schools is still a political issue.  -gn.
