Recently, as bigotry resurfaces, symbolized in the events in Charlottesville in August 2017, the lie is put to the belief that “this is not American, this is not us,” when, indeed, it truly is. We do not want to acknowledge how true it is because it makes us look complicit in prejudice we thought we had gotten over. Donald Trump is far more representative of the nation than many whites would like to admit.
