Who Lynched Willie Earle?:
In some cases, these liberal "progressives" show contempt for their fellow Americans who are lower class, poorly educated, sinking economically-and white. White male privilege is real, but that phrase probably mystifies a fifty-nine-year-old Walmart greeter in southern Ohio. A study by two Princeton researchers shows widespread despair among poor whites that often feeds bigotry, misplaced anger, and the racism that Donald Trump leveraged to his political advantage.15 Apparently, white racism trumps common sense, or even political self-interest in evaluating the fitness for public office of a man like Trump. Carol Anderson documents the unspoken but devastatingly effective strategy of the Republican Party {which I witnessed firsthand in North Carolina} to work white rage through passage of laws that have disadvantaged black Americans.
