John Birch still lives here.

Also, not long ago, I posted about a KKK gathering in an Anaheim park.

*Sigh*

My son's are biracial -- predominantly their physical appearance is of black ethnicity. When I first moved to the place I've lived, the first thing I learmed, for our own safety, from an d.v. counselor and personal friend, what that the KKK has *always* had strong roots in my home state in the Pacific northwest.

But it's not just reduced to something simple as the KKK, when dealing with White privilege and it's other driving counterparts of hate, racially motivated hate, etc.

Having lived the better part of life, wirh raising my biracial sons in what used to be considered a safe social segment of society, has not always been easy for my son's or myself.

30+ years of fielding racially motivated behaviors of others has impacted my son's and I for what seems to be an eternity.

I'm not surprised at all that white privilege and racialized hate is still an driving factor in American present day society.
