A University of Florida professor claims that the American notion of patriotism is “drenched in whiteness” and implies that black people are “un-American.”
Drawing on interviews with 22 black Americans, Dr. Micah Johnson asserts that American institutions continue to reflect advantages for white males that have existed since the country's founding.

Patriotism in Africa is drenched in blackness; patriotism in Mexico is drenched in brownness; patriotism in the Hawaiian Islands in drenched in Pacific Islanderness.  So what is his point?
