What if I told you I could solve the issue of racism in America? Bigotry, blind hate, and ignorance constitute part of the human condition. I cannot fight human nature. But what if the cure for real racism in America is nothing more than the definition of the word itself?
Take a moment to define “racism.” Everyone's first instinct is to say "a belief one's group is superior, based on skin color alone." They may phrase it differently but the intent is the same. Most of us have accepted the politically correct definition of racism.
I posed this question to my family, friends, fellow conservatives, and a few liberals—27 people in all. Only one person gave me an alternate definition of racism: Breitbart’s Brandon Darby.
In the sixties, the left changed the definition of racism.
If conservatives complain about the debt, they are racist. If conservatives complain about the deficit, the healthcare system, illegal immigration, Social Security, gun control—any contemporary issue—we are labeled racist.
Adding insult to injury, most calls of racism are shouted by white progressives. White progressives are undoubtedly sincere in their beliefs; they are convinced with 100 percent certainty their shouts of “racism” are completely justified.

Redefining Race in America
Until the American people recognize the fact that Progressives and their ideology are detrimental to their lives and their country there will be racial strife. They are the true racists of the Progressive movement are no different than those that formed the Ku Klux Klan over 148 years ago.
