Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gallup began <\/em>polling<\/em><\/a> opinions of race relations back in 2001. At that point, 70 percent of black Americans graded race relations as \u201cvery good\u201d or \u201csomewhat good,\u201d while 62 percent of white people agreed.<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Think about that\u2026 Eighteen years ago, black people were more satisfied with race relations than white people.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For another dozen years, outside of a bump here and a hiccup there, those numbers held. On average, more than 60 percent of black people and around 70 percent of white people gauged race relations as good<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2013, all was still good. More than two-thirds of blacks and whites were optimistic about race relations, and then it all collapsed. We went into a five-year dive we have still not recovered from. In the latest polling, only 55 percent of whites and 49 percent of blacks view race relations in a positive light.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what happened in 2013?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What suddenly killed everything?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer, sadly, is an organized media hoax: the death of Trayvon Martin.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In February 2012, George Zimmerman, a Hispanic man, shot and killed Trayvon Martin in self-defense.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But if you recall, in February 2012, President Barack Obama<\/strong>\u2019s re-election campaign was just starting to gear up, and after three years of failure, he needed a cause to turn out his base. And so the media came running to his aid and turned the Hispanic Zimmerman into a white man, turned an act of self-defense into a white man hunting down a black teenager, and went so far as to try and frame Zimmerman by <\/em>fabricating evidence<\/em><\/a> against him. – <\/em>(bold emphasis added)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
