White Men Play Race Card

In Kansas City, it depends on which color is speaking out as to whether or not the position is racist.

When black leaders spoke against the proposed partnership between Academie Lafayette and Kansas City Public Schools, the KCSTAR championed the district’s position: Any opposition to the partnership was “racist”. The Star chalked up the coalition of religious and community leaders’ stance to “Long-standing tensions between black and white communities". No investigation. Just prejudice. And, lot of folks bought that. The most insidious form of racism is to assume that when Black people speak they are not coming from a thoughtful, fact-based position; it is only their color speaking.

So, now there’s a very well-heeled group of white males who want to offer $12-15 million in support of the partnership. Will the Star brand them with an “R”? Will those in favor of the terms of the partnership be labeled “racist” as those who opposed the terms of agreement were? Will the Star refuse to print any editorials from readers who concur with the all-white, all-male position – as it refused to publish Letters-to-the-Editor from those who opposed the terms of the partnership?

Truth conquers racism. And, we’re short on truth around here. We’re too willing to form opinions based upon the say-so of the self-interested. We don’t seek sources with varying insights because, well, it’s time consuming. We prefer our truths encrusted in certitude and opposing ideas confuse us. We don’t talk to folks who don’t already agree with us. We don’t hold public forums on controversial issues because it might get out of hand and we’d be made to feel uncomfortable. We don’t even call folks “on the other side” because we already know what they think.

If you want to put an end to racism in KC, here’s a starting point: Pick up your phone and call someone who has a position different than yours. Make sure that person is knowledgeable of the proposed partnership’s terms of agreement because that is the source of friction – not race. And, if that phone call leads to a public forum where all the facts are in clear view and reasonable persons can find agreement , be sure to invite me.
