NO! Focusing on race/gender doesn't move the country forward and unify it, it tears the country apart along those lines! You can't have a peaceful and unified country with all of it's minorities being told that white people are inherently bad and should be punished.
Looks like the political theater is heating up, but remember, real change doesn't always come from the top down.
