Sen. Raphael Warnock condemns America for 'its worship of whiteness'. Public figures who talk like this are preparing a bloody future for the USA.

Since white people "live in a social environment that insulates them from race-based stress," whites are rarely challenged and have less of a tolerance to race-based stress. The defensiveness, guilt, or denial gets in the way of addressing the racism experienced by people of color. Robin DiAngelo coined the term white fragility to describe these feelings as "a state in which even a minimum amount of racial stress becomes intolerable, triggering a range of defensive moves."

It is a mystery to me how the institutional elites in America became so willing to talk in forthrightly racist terms, and to demonize people (white people) on the basis of race.

Innocent, who fled Rwanda at the age of 16, has warned about the dangers for LGBTQ+ in the country as the government plan to deport asylum seekers.

Suella Braverman, who has replaced Priti Patel as Home Secretary,also found herself in the spotlight for saying that it is her 'dream' to get the plan, which could see LGBTQ+ asylum seekers face persecution, off the ground. They live a lie, they get married, they have to lie to the police, they have to lie to their wives. The policy to deport asylum seekers to Rwanda has come under scrutiny and has faced legal challenges which led to the first planned deportation flight to be grounded. Innocent has been able to rebuild a new life for himself in the UK and live as an openly gay man but warns of the 'prison-like' conditions for LGBTQ+ people in Rwanda, There’s a lot of evidence that sexual orientation and gender identity is still taboo and the government doesn’t want to do anything about that. People are still being bullied, being put in prison, being tortured almost, and rejected by the community wherever they go.
