Multiracial democracy in America in only about 55 years old.
The fight we're having right now is about whether we will allow political equality as we transition from a white majority nation to a white plurality one.
MAGA chose white supremacy over freedom and justice for all.

Trump's white power authoritarianism is a salve for white people who are afraid of losing the cultural and political power.
Whiteness must be more explictly fought for because it is no longer the default.
His movement will use any means necessary to defend white hegemony.

Sadly, the basic mechanisms of American constitutional democracy are also not designed for multiracial democracy.
Therefore, the constitution is a shield against Trump's authoritarianism, but also an obstacle to economic, social and political equality for all Americans.

In the coming years, we will have a more explicit fight between those arguing for majority and minority rule.
The defenders of minority rule will only become more ruthless and less democratic in their approaches.
The defenders of majority rule must match their tenacity.
