Segregation Now, Segregation Forever?Equal access for the unvaccinated is the civil rights issue of our time.Fri Jan 28, 2022 Joseph Hippolito On Jan. 23, thousands of protesters appeared in Washington, D.C. to demand an end to vaccine mandates. The fact that the protest took place six days after the nation commemorated the life of Martin Luther King Jr. holds profound significance.
More than five decades after King's assassination, Americans face the worst segregation since the civil rights movement. That segregation has nothing to do with the myth of "systemic racism" decried by the "woke." It has nothing to do with race, creed or gender. It does, however, have everything to do with the authoritarian agenda the "woke" seek to promote.
Just as equal access to facilities, opportunities and legal status motivated King and his contemporaries, so has equal access for the unvaccinated and unmasked become the civil-rights issue of our time. Just as segregationists sought to limit access for the sake of an alleged greater social good, so do the "progressives" who demand that vaccinations and mandates continue indefinitely for the sake of "public health" and "the common good."
Just as bigoted segregationists viewed African-Americans as second-class citizens whose every movement must be closely monitored and controlled, so do bigoted “progressives” view the unvaccinated.
Los Angeles recently provided a disturbing example. On Jan. 18, New West Charter School, a public school in the Los Angeles Unified School District for Grades 8-12, not only prohibited unvaccinated students from attending class. They were forced to stand outside behind police tape. Almost every student was wearing a mask.
"They asked for chairs, were denied & are sitting on the pavement, not allowed to even use restroom," a group called Let Them Breathe posted on Twitter. "LAPD is on site but not intervening."
