It is repeated over and over in\nour media, like a mantra\u2026 Thankfully not at all on her Lebanese-American internet\nradio from LA (no politics is their philosophy\u2014only fun music and entertainment\n?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just for her own fun, Bambi googled \u201csystemic racism\u201d and she got \u201c10,200,000\u201d hits (she did this on October 9, 2020 at 8:30 PM in Atlantic time).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She did that after discovering the video shown further below; accidentally (dated: June, 2020). It is trying to explain to kids a concept called \u201c<em>white privilege<\/em>\u201d (as if privilege had a colour). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How absurd. How superficial. How dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sad to live in our times of collective obsession with\none concept after the other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yesterday, it was climate change. Today, it is\nsystemic racism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is the latter what replaced the former?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, once again, why the lack of refined thought in our\napproach to a topic as serious as racism?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Is this new obsession a form of our collective societal\ninsanity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a dangerous obsession. Indeed, it can eventually lead to hate (self- and within a society). It can fuel resentment and maybe even racism, despite any good intention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aren\u2019t we enough divided already?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Needless to say that Bambi is not saying this because there is no racism or no discrimination in life and in our societies. Yes, sadly, some of us have been historically and even currently mistreated. Who can deny it? But why the blahblahblah? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actions are like how the government of Qu\u00e9bec immediately fired the nurse at the Joliette hospital to give a clear message that what she did is UNACCEPTABLE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actions are like those of our Federal Minister Marc\nMiller who seems to genuinely care for his Indigenous citizens: &nbsp;(<a href=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/7386336\/coronavirus-marc-miller-indigenous\/\">https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/7386336\/coronavirus-marc-miller-indigenous\/<\/a>).\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When she reads the above, Bambi sees logic,\nactions\/reactions, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When she listens to the video below, she pauses and thinks to herself (and she will share with you): Yes, three recurrent miscarriages are far from being fun. Despite this, Bambi feels thankful to life because she does not have kids who are now watching the <em>CBC Kids<\/em> ?. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"White privilege, systemic racism explained | CBC Kids News\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NZkGWmrIRFU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>She does not know about you, but Bambi is fed up to read\/hear the term \u201csystemic racism\u201d.
