U.S. Military, Which Jill Biden Will Lecture About Race, Is More Diverse than Federal Government

Joel B. Pollak 12 Jul 2021

First Lady Jill Biden will join Sesame Street and the United Services Automobile Association (USAA) to lecture U.S. military families about race — despite the fact that the U.S. military is more diverse than the rest of the federal government and the American population in general.

The Hill reported Monday:

    First lady Jill Biden is partnering with “Sesame Street” and the United Services Automobile Association (USAA) to help military families discuss race with their children.

    In a joint statement, “Sesame Street” and the USAA shared their joint partnership by releasing a new collection of resources for military families on the discussion of race and diversity.

    These new resources will be a part of “Sesame Street’s” Coming Together initiative for racial literacy [sic].

The military is one of the most diverse institutions in American society. Minorities made up 43% of active duty service members in 2017 — up from 36% in 2004 — and many members of the armed forces have racially mixed families. In contrast, racial minorities make up about 40% of the general population and about 38% of the federal workforce.

Fewer racists in the military than in Congress and the current MalAdministration in terms of %, too.

Wow the first lady will lecture about race, I'm sure that she and Joe had tons of interactions with everyday people of color let alone just everyday people to to draw on, and Partnering with Sesame street whose actual forte is sexual perversion seems kind of.........odd. The biggest problem the members of the military have, I would venture, is not racism, anti alphabet soupers, gays or scary White supremacist conservatives but radical communist democrats both in and out of government.

The good ole boys, hardcore racists of yesteryear,love to preach and pontificate on the evils of racism, and point fingers at others and accuse.  It seems to comfort them as sufficient cover to blind suckers as to who and what they really are.  If only people were willing to take their denial blinders off!
