      Candace Valenzuela Retweeted The Ringer

      A timely metaphor by @larrywilmore: “America has dealt with the disease of racism (#COVID1619), since before its founding, but unfortunately has not achieved herd immunity. Like a viral outbreak, many of the carriers of the racism virus can be asymptomatic.“ (1/x)https://twitter.com/ringer/status/1267984713991389184 …

      “You could be standing right next to them and have no idea that they could be carrying racism… they’re not coughing, don’t have a fever, not calling you a n*****. There appears to be no reason for you to be alarmed. And they may not even know that they’ve got the virus.” (2/x)

      “Maybe a parent or a grandparent had it, but at the most they might have the antibodies, but they certainly don’t have the live racism virus... if they had COVID-1619, their lungs would be filled with hate, right? And that hate would come spewing out of their mouths.” (3/x)

          "But see, that’s not how the racism virus works. If all it did was appear as hatred, it has no chance of survival. Viruses must survive. The racism virus is sneaky. Because here’s what it did: It found a host." (4/x)

          "And that host has it allowed it to survive centuries without fear of being eliminated. I’m speaking, of course, of white supremacy." (5/x)

          “I think that if (America) wants to deal with the problem of racism, it can’t just focus on eliminating hate. People are always going to hate. I hate the Boston Celtics. I’m not letting that go.” (6/x)

          “If we want to truly get rid of racism, we’re going to have to dismantle white supremacy, and that is not going to be easy. And by white supremacy I’m not speaking of the KKK or the Alt-Right or any other fringe group..." (7/x)

          "easy to identify by their extremity or their straightforward bigotry. I’m just talking about the deeply ingrained notion that white is just better. It’s above everything else. Everything non-white falls short, and black falls the shortest.” (8/x)
