In early June, protesters at a raucous rally in Minneapolis screamed at Mayor Jacob Frey, “It’s not about you!”
White people on the political Left, however, would beg to differ. Since the tragic death of George Floyd in the custody of the Minneapolis police, they have very much made the protests, the chaos, the raw emotions, and this moment about them.
They have been falling all over themselves to express contrition, self-loathing, and outrage. The contrition and self-loathing is for their white privilege.

Alas, a great deal of liberal white people’s virtue-signaling has become disgusting and disgraceful.
