Dems were busy working the race card over the July 4 weekend.... It is in their best interest to keep racism alive and well.

Gallup recently found that 65% of Americans are “extremely” or “very” proud to be citizens, and another 20% are “moderately” proud. There has been a detectable diminution of patriotism — the Left’s work is doing its intended damage — but a huge majority still takes a positive view of their country. Only 4% are not proud of it at all.
A prominent member of the grumpy minority is Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who thought July 4 a good moment to hector the nation about being built on “stolen land toiled over by enslaved Africans” and to suggest “freedom” is the preserve of “just a privileged few.” We are not free, apparently, “until everyone is truly free.”
.....
Americans are free to party, free to work, free to live free. Regrettably, anyone is also free to grift, and grifting is what racial politics has become. Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) used July 4 to support the most fashionable grift of all: reparations for slavery. She declared that the government has a “legal obligation to pay” reparations. We’ll see, but that seems unlikely.
