How is the bold section even close to uniquely American?
It isn't, but that's no reason to act dismissive of the problem of institutional racism.
It's weird to me how people want to pretend race doesn't exist. It's simply untrue, ask an anthropologist. There are thousands of genetically identifiable races, far more than just the few that are popularly recognized.
The fact that there are different races is no basis for racism, discrimination, hate, or anything like that.
I understand that some people who want to see racism go away think it's easiest to say that "race" doesn't exist and therefore we're all the same, but that's a blatant lie, and arguments built on lies don't hold.
Racism is, in a way, hard-wired into people. We're tribal by nature, and tribes survived best by looking out for "us" and being wary of "them". But we are supposedly civilized people, and should be able to treat "them" no differently than we do "us".
To face up to the reality that we all are different, and then treat your fellow man as a brother shouldn't be too much to ask.
Isn't there something about that in Christian creed anyway?
That's complete nonsense - in fact the non-existence of race is one of the major bedrocks of
modern anthropology. There is 'genetic ancestry' but that shouldn't be confused with 'race'.
