Ahmaud Arbery and the Root Cause of Racism

The savage murder of Ahmaud Arbery has rightly shocked America.  I just saw the video yesterday and found it very hard to watch.  And how many other racially-motivated acts of violence are committed that never stir the conscience of the public precisely because there is no video to record what happened?

Despite all the calls for tolerance, for acceptance, despite the many anti-bullying and anti-racism classes in schools, the federal hate crime classification, and so much more, racism and race-based crime continues in America. 

The only, only thing that can end it is the understanding of where it begins, in the self, which Aesthetic Realism for the first time provides. That is what the following important article is about.
  
Read "It Is in Contempt that the Root of Racism Lies" by late maritime captain, photographer, and Aesthetic Realism Associate Allan Michael.
